Leem,go to any general hospital/federal medical center explain to the doctors and ask to see a hematology for better clarification.assuming u are in lagos,LASUTH would have been d best.

treasuremabel:


Norflex, folic acids, bico, astymine syrup

But currently I don't take any medications, just fruit n enough water everyday
Yea sounds impossible right? but I took those drugs last like 8months ago

lepasharon... Others see you the way you see yourself. Just believe you are wonderfully made n fit.. Then you are good to go

Mikwus:




I am a warrior. I don't use drugs. I had my last blood transfusion at age 8. I last had crisis about 7yrs ago. Before I completely stopped medication, I used to take jobelyn. I stopped about 3yrs ago.

I just eat healthy, stay away from stress, drink lots of water and cover up well when its cold. .

My PCV is always above 35%. I check every month and my doctor is amazed.

So if she says she isn't using any medication. Believe it.

All things are possible if we just believe.

#SickleStrongByTheBloodOfJesus

laudate:


Amen! And I pray that the Blood of Jesus continues to speak healing into your life and into the lives of all warriors.

I lost a dear cousin in the US about 3 years ago to sickle cell. He had gone through a bone marrow transplant and was crisis-free for about a year until he had a relapse.

Each time I think about him, my heart feels so heavy.

I carry the sickle-cell trait and I have had to cut off some promising relationships due to the genotype factor. Better safe than sorry.

To all warriors out there....stay strong & stay healthy!

Leem4:

Make Sure She Wears Cardigan And Her Clothing Covers Her Leg,long Gown/trousers,apply Robb/light Balm On The Chest,legs And Hands After Bathing.Take Warm Liquid In The Morning And Encourage Her To Drink Enough Water.

everfaithfulGod:
Thank you so much. realy appreciate

everfaithfulGod:
Thank you for your response. We've taken her to another hospital and has been playing since then except that she cant stand to her feet or walk. she tried to stand bt couldnt. we were told it is crisis. i pray she get over it soon. I am realy feeling for her.
Any suggestn on home remedy to ease the pain wil be appreciated. Thanks

Dahjhi:
That's cool. I'm not sure you will need any home remedy @ the moment. I will guess the medical personnel should have jab her enough of pain killers. all she needed now should be just the playing and relaxing with her normal food. And give her a lot water to drink too.. also follow all instructions from the clinic... #SheLives. #Shallom.

tabontabon:
I Forgot To Mention,diet Plays An Important Role. Vegetable And Beans/egg Should Be Encouraged. You Can Get Fresh Ugwu Squeeze The Juice(like You Do Bitter Leaf) Add Liquid Milk To The Juice,let Her Drink,it's Good For The Blood.
Also Get Astymin Not Astyfer. If She Is The Eating Type Then You Are Lucky.Avoid Dependence On Junk Food Just Make It A Treat .

Amynamerica:


Eat healthy, Fruits and green vegetables (esp. Pumpkin leaf). In my case, I figured it had to do with age. I was in my final year when I noticed I was filling out my clothes. Now I'm struggling to maintain a healthy BMI.

I have given birth! Another baby boy.

#warrior! Stay healthy people.

dupsai:
Apart from medication another thing that keep warriors going is the WILL TO LIVE. Ive bn there @ 44yrs now with 2 beautiful kids and an understanding husband n family l can say im lucky....... BUT its not luck but the grace of JEHOVAH RAPHA. There are times that the pains get tough and i feel like giving up but i always know that TOUGH TIMES never last but TOUGH PEOPLE do. With prayers n believe in God n yourself you can not only be a WARRIOR but a CONQUEROR............. Cheers everyone out there, better days ahead.

lanre47:
I don't think their is much to fear. As long as you are AA, you can never have SS children. the worst case your will have AS.

As per blood, is not like that. As long as they eat healthy, take their routine drugs, boil sorghum leave and drink, this gives them blood, you would not need to be donating blood .



Take care.
