Let her get pregnant and have a child as soon as possible.
I'm not praying but that may be the start of a long journey

favoryte33:
You have nothing to fear.You should be thankful to God that she's now aware of her genotype. you see,ss patience have an abnormal red blood cell which has a shorter life span(compared to healthy ones)&so they suffer from anaemia(low pcv count).

favoryte33:
Unfortunately,it's just one of d crises she would encounter as SS patient but you need 2 stand by her in times of trial. I'll suggest she should be placed on special diets rich in iron& supplements, incorporate green veggys in her meal&reduce stress.

ctleurocollege:
Stand by her that's all

Sorry bro, have to reply you because you are one of my long long online friend I met here long ago. To be frank, I pray for devine healing for her. At this stage, she needs your full support mentally, physically and whichever way u can stand by her. From experience, she may be in and out of the hospitals for long for tests, admissions , and the likes. SS is not something that to joke with especially when it gets to stages that she will be short of blood here and there, she is having a crisis.
Red blood cells usually live for about 120 days before they need to be replaced. But sickle cells usually die in 10 to 20 days, leaving a shortage of red blood cells (anemia).
Without enough red blood cells, her body can't get the oxygen it needs to feel energized, causing fatigue. So it's either she keeps on with the transfusion or bone marrow transplant, in either way it costs lot of money here and there. It's not her fault, it's not yours either. Probably the ignorance of the parents.
I don't want to scare you but it requires prayers, a dedicated heart and support , no matter what comes out for her. I won't advice you to get her pregnant as someone earlier suggested because it may be worse than what you think during pregnancy and if anything happens to her, her family will not hold you responsible especially when you have not paid her pride price.
Wishing her the best recoveries and devine healing.

I will because I sincerely love her but I need a permanent solution to the frequent blood shortage.

ppeessuu:
Bro sorry about ur girl condition.
From my experience she has and infection that is killing her blood faster than normal n and the earlier u discover the infection the better or else u will continue in this circles of shortage of blood.
Bacteria like h pylori in the digestive tract cause low blood , dizziness n many more.
Bacteria like ecoli causes low blood too.
So am very sure some bacteria infection is killing her blood.
Let her eat freshly cook vegetables daily without fish, meat n carb.
Let her take natural supplement like trevo or rain soul to also increase her pvc.

Pls pls n pls invstigate the infection oo

My Fiancee who is 26yr old recently did her genotype test only to discover that she is SS. I'm AA though.

CAPSLOCKED:



ARE YOU SURE YOU'VE NOT BEEN TRICKED?

IN THIS MODERN AGE, IS IT POSSIBLE THAT A 26YR-OLD IS JUST FINDING OUT HER GENOTYPE?

HOW CAN AN SS PERSON NOT KNOW SHE'S SS? HOW CAN YOU SAY SINCE SHE WAS BORN, HER SS SYMPTOMS RECENTLY STARTED MANIFESTING NOW THAT SHE'S 26, ABOUT TO WED YOU?

YOU, MY HUMBLE FRIEND HAS BEEN LIED TO. ALTHOUGH I DO NOT KNOW WHY SHE WOULD DO THAT, BUT IT IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR A 26YR-OLD SS CARRIER TO NOT KNOW SHE'S SS. WHAT ABOUT HER AS PARENTS? DO YOU KNOW THEM? HOW WERE THEY NEVER WORRIED THAT THEIR SWEET DAUGHTER MAY BE SS?

OGBENI YOU'VE BEEN DECEIVED, AND WILL FURTHER BE DECEIVED WITH MORE CØCK-AND-BULL STORIES.
