She should remain under observation by a haematologit/,oncologist.She should take loperin tab 75 mg daily .She has to monitored with blood CBC every month till RBC count and hematocrit settles down.Onlg time will tejo long.
The failure of Jak 2 mutation in being detected seems reassuring for the time being.
Keel her BP checked off and on.
