Now I have found another relationship oboy 2weeks into it I ask sharply "baby do you know your genotype?," and she gladly say " i have tested two times i have been confirm to be AA" Am now a happy man. Meanwhile in the mids of this scarce AA. AA plus AA = waste of genotype.

You guys make Sickle cell anaemia sound like a plague on this forum, I have seen people throw derogatory remarks and stale jokes using sick cell for emphasis. well if you must know, I'M SS and not shying away from it because I can't escape it, it was never my doing, my parents were ignorant so I must learn to be happy and appreciate the gift of life. Those born with AA genotype are lucky, AS carriers are equally lucky, SS patients are SPECIAL bred. We survive the pains, we survive discrimination by the public, we survive Soul numbing Crises pains, so many Dos and Don'ts, endless trip to the hospital, many a night while others enjoy blissful sleep in comfort, a wail of agony issues from our throats for no fault of ours, yet we push on. We will appreciate it if you guys can stop making SS patients feel inferior, we are human too, STOP RUBBING IT ON OUR FACES THAT YOU DON'T WANT US IN YOUR MIDST, WE KNOW ALREADY, unfortunately you can do NOTHING about it, lucky us. Finally, this is a topic worth the discuss, I hope some of you will not deliberately walk into open flames and call on God to send the rain. better to be safe than sorry. angry embarassed lipsrsealed undecided

Don't mind these ignorant halfwits. They refuse to acknowledge that SC is not a death sentence and the end of the world.

Listen you Nigerians because you ppl have the most disgusting attitude towards ppl with SC compared to other black populations.

Ppl with SC are not weaklings like you think
Ppl with SC don't have HIV like the rest of you, ppl with SC are more intelligent than the rest of you, ppl with SC are not obese like the rest of you.


Ppl with SC please come out if you are in a shell and don't let anybody shame you because having SC is not ur fault and life is too short to be upset about having SC you might aswell be positive.

So very important!!!!
My classmate died due to the fact that she was SS when we were in 200level. they are four in the family; 3 Boys and just a girl. all three among the girl is late now but the last boy is an AS. they are also very wealthy and spends money like water for the health of the 2 Boys and a girl that are sickle cell. But they till died of the same ailment.

What i'm trying to bring out to y'all is that whether u are rich or not; don't fall in love blindly. shine your eyes wella starting with knowing your genotype. And if u are SS, go for strictly AA Genotype as u will be kind enough not to watch your baby go through the same pains in which u are going through.

Another way in knowing your genotype without test is that AS hardly fall ill of Malaria while AA na Baba for Malaria. I have been suspecting that i am AA for long due to my falling ill of Malaria often. And when i got my test result "loo and behold I can fall in love anywhere anytime with no fears.

In this 21st century, no one should be ignorant and not know their genotype. Know your genotype before dating/marriage because if you ignore it, that love wey you think say you get for your partner would disappear when you see the child/ren start having crisis if born with the SS genotype. It's very sad and tearful to watch an SS child when they have crisis.

No be all of them o, some AAs' are prone to malaria whilst other AAs' are not. Infact some of them can even go for a long period of time without experiencing malaria.
