A member asked:

What is prognosis for myelofibrosis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: They are several phases of the disease and it depends on how much fibrosis is present in the marrow. Since this is included in the group of disorders known as myeloproliferative neoplasms, it can develop into a leukemia. Hope this was helpful.
