If you have money, please travel out and do transplant. Don't mind ignorant Nigerians saying no cure. It's 85% successful, but risk increases with age, so the earlier the better. You also need a donor too.

Transplant is very expensive. Perhaps, the most expensive medical treatment I have known

Great advise....

Bro, I am 45 years sickle cell and married with 3 kids. Although my own is different than others. I meant that I hardly get sick and have never been to hospital or admitted. I may have just had back pain for one or two days every three or four years. That is the reason I said mine is different from others. I have read about sickle cell and it is considered for people who live their normal age to 80 to 90, etc. Don't let people advise you or your brother thinking is a death sentence. My oldest brother is 46, 3 kids as well, and hardly gets is too or goes to the hospital.




Are you sure you are SS? You know there are different types of sickle cell Anaemia eg SC, SO, S Arab, S Punjab etc. SS are more prone to crisis and will barely do well on Nigeria unless he/she is from a super rich family that's well educated about the disease.

Yes, bone marrow transplant has shown to be the cure for SCD.

The People of Osun State are good in managing it with herbs

Make him eat at least one bitter Kola daily

My Uncle and aunties have it they are 69,73 and 75 years

The Northners normally boil camel bones and drink the water daily that too is effective

Eating Chicken bones makes it worse

I dey suffer sickle cell,buh if you see me,you no go gree. grin
Fine and very smart,with 3 girlfriends.
Here is the secret:
Every morning before he eat,let him take 3 folic and 3 aspirin Tab together.
let him sleep with mosquito net always.
Let him take livercap forte,it will help reduce spleen diseases (2 capsules every week)
Encourage him to drink water as much as possible
Let him take penicillin tab every month end
Let him avoid masturbation,or at least reduce it to two 2 three times a week.
**Masturbation effects may not reflect on normal people,buh we the sticklers are at it's mercy,I am talking from experience!

Let him avoid cold weather by wearing hoodies during cold seasons.
Let him avoid strong exercises,(he should reduce his exercises to a maximum of 30 minutes so as not to trigger the crises.
Let him take folic and vitamin c together after dinner before going to bed.
Encourage him to drink a cup of water in the middle of the night when he woke up to ease himself (it will help to reduce the yellowish eyeballs)
There is a medicine called *hydroxyurea* he should be taking it.



4 tablets of folic acid in a day?
3 tablets of Aspirin? Dose please?
By avoiding masturbation you mean to prevent priapism?



Your recommendations are not clear, thus needs scrutiny.

I am.a medical.doctor who have been involved in treatment of sickle cell disorder for about 25 years.
Whilst it carries high morbidity and mortality, good education about appropriate lifestyle adaptations does help overall.

The severity varies depending on the traits: there is SS the main one and other variants such as SC,SD,etc..

There is a definitive treatment in Europe where I practice now and in America through bone marrow transplant. This completely changes the genotype to AA from SS ,since the marrow is obtained from AA.It is ,however,an expensive treatment.

Advice is to follow medical.advice and guidance and seek early treatment in case of bones crises.




Thank you. Too many ignorance on this thread. Thanks chief, you have done justice 👍👍👍

Re: Help! My Brother Has Sickle Cell by lukui: 7:00pm On Nov 16, 2023
Nigeria has the highest number of sicke cell patients in the world

Simply because most parents don't check their blood group or genotype when they want to k**ck,

Thats one of the "why" Abiku (like JP Clark and Wole Soyinka) said in their poems Though spirits too dey don't be confused but way way back them nobody checked their blood groups!

As for living with sicko, there is a hospital now in Lagos where they successively do it's surgery and the patient will live and survive

Sickle cell is a disease

And Prophet Muhammad SAW said there is no disease without cure except death

But if you dont have money for the surgery, you can eat well and rest well and live a happy life

Dearie don't panic sickle cell patients can live long and healthy okay! Make sure he sleeps in the net avoid mosquitoes, take his medications if any crisis go to the hospital make sure his doctor is your family friend bc you most likely will have emergency atimes so you guys should make his doctor as friend ask necessary questions on how to manage him doing crisis and what to avoid so he will not have crisis! SS live normal life now they work get married and have their own children, careers businesses! He will be very fine don't be afraid!

Bro go straight to the point and say you're the one with the sickle cell anemia.
SS patients can live normal life just like other, get married and have kids too. Stop letting rubbish people talk online discourage you.
Some SS people even live long and healthy more than the so called AA, even AS people have tendency of sickle cell anemia in them but they are not carriers of the disease.
Bro take care of yourself, eat good foods and take your meds regularly and you will be fine, also avoid strenuous activities.

You lack knowledge because you don't make research .

Mumu is your middle name. In your little mind, you think you know more than him and everyone else, right?
Most of the talks here has always been about preventing giving births to SS kids, not really about people who are already living with the condition. I'm sure that in a million years to come, you can't understand what he's passing through. Mr motivational speaker grin grin grin

I said 3 tabs of folic and aspirin.
Folic is actually 5mg.
Aspirin Tab is 50 mg.
Total taken is 150+15mg=====165mg.
It's a fight bro,that's how I have been surviving.
The major function of the duo combination is to fight against cold.
All sicklers have pneumonia,and as such suffers from cold.
Their crisis are mostly triggered by cold,make enquiry.

They are not labelled "warriors" for nothing.
They fights steady
