You Have To Go To Know…Because Your MPN Isn't Waiting

Author: Voices of MPN
Incyte has partnered with actor LeVar Burton to encourage people with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) to prioritize their health by visiting their Healthcare Professionals and seeking the care they need.
Delaying or avoiding medical care can have serious implications for one's health, especially those living with chronic and progressive conditions like MPNs. The best way to manage an MPN is through consistent visits with a Healthcare Professional to regularly monitor the disease to identify any changes or progression.
As a storyteller, LeVar has spent much of his career bringing the stories of others to life. By elevating the voices of people living with MPNs, together with Incyte, LeVar aims to inspire the community to prioritize managing their MPN.
If you're living with an MPN and haven't visited your Healthcare Professional recently, schedule an appointment today—and keep it! These appointments are important opportunities to identify and discuss how your condition may be changing over time. When you miss appointments, you also miss out on those essential conversations.
