Overview
A significant proportion of patients with myelofibrosis can be asymptomatic. The hallmark of the disease is pancytopenia. A positive history of fatigue, recurring infections, and bleeding complications is suggestive of myelofibrosis. The most common symptom is fatigue which is prominent enough as it remarkably affects the quality of life. Fatigue, a result of anemia, leads to the associated complaints of weakness, palpitations, and dyspnea on exertion. Other nonspecific symptoms such as fever, night sweats, and weight loss can also be present at diagnosis.
