Although this seems to defy medical science, I know of someone like this in the US. She is American and she was SS as a child. It later changed. I do not know how this is possible, but it can happen.

In America, I know of treatment/cure that does that with its first case celebrated in 2017. However, in Nigeria, is this treatment already available?

Monaboo:
Yes darling. Their genotype changed from SS to AA. This is first hand information am giving you.

They are not the only ones that their genotype have changed. This same person they went to helped another Sickle Cell girl of about 2yrs old. She was SC. She got cured to and her genotype changed to AA. The mother almost ran mad. Several laboratory results have confirmed it.

I don't like coming out to say it because people are always quick to attack, judge and fight you even when u are trying to help them so I keep these solutions to myself.

It's always best to keep quiet and let people sort their problems by themselves.

I will end with this. This is 2022 and not 1980. For every health problem now, there is a cure whether u believe it or not but we live in an Evil world.

The day you realize that the Health Sector is more concerned about making money off people's Sicknesses, Diseases and Ailments than making the public aware of the available cure, that is the day u will realize that this Health sector is more of a Business Enterprise and your terminal sickness is a major case out.

I don't really understood your post at all. Are you saying that this cure for sickle cell is already available in Nigeria or not?

Imagine changing your complete genotype? That's alien level tech

On the contrary, it isn't. It happened here some years ago. https://www.nairaland.com/5898889/cure-sickle-cell-disease#90240402

I have since then tried to create awareness but seems Nigerians are more concerned with keeping society norms than allowing love prevail.

My sister dated this guy for 6 years. They planned on getting married December. Both did blood tests yesterday and her fiancé turned out to be AS. She is AS as well.
She was shocked because the guy initially told her he was AA. In fact she only agreed to sleep with him for the first time because he promised her marriage and when she inquired then about his genotype, he lied about it.
Now he says his genotype must have changed. My sister is devastated right now. I told her to go ahead with the marriage and plan for adoption.

How can you tell her to go on what he marriage, what kind of stupid answer is that...a guy is digging the grave of your sister and you're helping him to pack the sand...seems your brain is paining you, akamu

digging grave how? Una sef ehhh

There are many options
1) Choose not to have kids
2)adoption
3) Test the embryo before putting them back in
4) during pregnancy, test for the genotype of the child, if it’s ss you know what you’ll do

Now tell me how they are digging her grave

My brother the lie is too grievous to be ignored or swept under the carpet. Can you imagine or comprehend this kind of deceit? Infact she should pack from that state and move 8 states away from that guy walai

ZIMDRILL:


Your sister had the guts to tell you
that she sleep with becoz she had been
promised marriage.

You are stupid as your sister to come here and tell us the story

Who goes around telling people a story that involves his own sister being slept with ?

My Nigga, may we not see problems that will turn us to Mumu. She is desperate, that's why she has been behaving stupidly.

Kobojunkie:
That statement in bold is a lie.. Not every woman out there has a desire to birth kids.

I actually think his advice a good one so his sister decides before hand if she is willing to in fact live with the consequence of going ahead with the relationship.

You don't tell someone outrightly that they are WRONG! It's like an insult to their personality. At least, find a way to also see it at their own point of view. My 2 cents

If a point is a lie you are telling me that rather that stating it so, I should look around for ways to understand the lie?

No! Don't get me wrong pls, there are numerous ways you can let people no they are wrong without saying it outrightly, without hurting their feelings.

I just hope they will be able yo afford the cost of adoption ams still appreciate the child

Already the relationship is built on false hope from tjr guy

How arw we sure he won't deceive hee all through thw marriage

Left for me

They shouldn't go ahead that guy way is not pure

To avoid circumstances that your sister will be frustrated with the marriage

Imagine a grown up person telling you they think their genotype is AA.

I wont even spend another second with that unserious person.

I have never had to check my genotype before now either, and I am really grown-ed up.
