I sincerely seek your honest advice and guidance concerning a deeply personal and challenging situation I am currently facing.
I got married to my wonderful wife two years ago. Before our wedding, we both underwent genotype testing, although in different hospitals—mine was done in Abuja and hers in Lokoja. According to the results at that time, I was told I had the AA genotype, while hers came out as AS. Regrettably, I did not take the step to verify my result with a second test from another facility.
Early last year, we were blessed with our first child. Shortly after his birth, I secured a job in a federal agency, which required a comprehensive medical evaluation. During this process, I was tested again, and to my surprise, the genotype result came out as AS. I went to another reputable hospital to confirm, and the result remained AS.
Fast forward to a few weeks ago—our son, now a year old, began experiencing swelling in his hands and feet. Initially, we thought it was a minor injury and got him some medication from a pharmacy, but the condition worsened and spread. We had to rush him to one of the top hospitals in Abuja, where he was sadly diagnosed with sickle cell anemia (SS).
As you can imagine, this has been devastating news for me. I’m overwhelmed with emotion, regret, and confusion. I love my wife dearly, but I’m also struggling with the reality of the situation—especially knowing it could have been avoided with more careful steps.
I am reaching out to you all, not to cast blame, but to ask for your heartfelt advice: How do I move forward? Should I continue with the marriage, or should I consider separation?
Thank you for taking the time to read and respond. Your opinions and suggestions will mean a lot to me during this difficult time.
Warm regards,
What God has joined together no man shall put asunder. You have to move on from there and learn how to avoid complications from an SS patient. There are many SS living good lives and your case will not be the first.
There are many steps that can be advised to navigate issues arising from an ss. Get in touch with a physician for help.
HBOT is one method that knowledgeable individuals apply to reduce morbidity and mortality in SS disease.
Do your research and explore ways hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) can help in many ways not yet envisaged in our environment. HBOT works better and faster.

Bede2u: Colon cancer is a very terrible cancer. It's symptoms are so vague that most people who have it would never know until the tumour has spread and they become really sick.
Colon cancer is the first killer-cancer for males and second for women. It affects mostly people over 50 years old, but is fast rising in young people in their 20s and 30s.
Colon cancer is basically cancer in the large intestine. People who experience symptoms can have diarrhea and/or constipation, on and off. Some complain of farting too much and feeling bloated. Some have cramps in their stomach. Some have blood in their poo. Some lose weight and get tired easily. Some have poo that appear thinner than usual, like ribbon.
However all the above symptoms can be caused by many other conditions. That's why colon cancer is so hard to spot early in young people.
In my case, about a month ago, I developed really bad diarrhea with extreme fatigue. I was basically pooing watery stool and sleeping all day. This lasted for a week. Then I started having cramps in my stomach. My stomach kept making noise and I would fart over 100 times a day. This lasted for a month (I still have this). Then came the thin stools. Soon after, I developed constipation ( I still have this). Then came the blood in stool. I saw this just 3 days ago. At this point I was more than convinced I have colon cancer. I was stressing out on how to navigate my future. I'm just a young, single guy, mid 30s. How can I start dealing with cancer at this age. What badluck?!
I booked a colonoscopy, so that a doctor would use a small camera inserted through my bumhole to check my colon and see why I'm bleeding. My heart was pounding while waiting for the procedure today. The other people in the ward were older people. I was the only young person there and I kept asking how did I become so unlucky?! I was sedated. Next thing I remember was waking up with the doctor smiling and telling me I didn't have cancer. Turns out I had hermorriods from straining to poo during my constipation. That was the reason for blood in my stool. And I had eaten something bad a month ago which gave me my very bad diarrhea and cramps.
I was so relieved and decided to share this to bring to your awareness about colon cancer. If you notice odd symptoms about your toileting, talk to your doctor. If caught early, colon cancer can be cured. Also if you have all the symptoms, it may still not be colon cancer. Get it checked out ASAP.
Below are a few famous people who died due to colon cancer.
ChybuzzDD: Stop saying what you don't know. Which developed countries are you talking about? The same ones we worked in or the ones in Mars? Disc prolapse with cord or nerve compression requires surgery everywhere in the world. A friend in Canada had his operated on just last week Every procedure has complications and that shouldn't be taken advantage of by people like you to mislead others.
You and this other ''Hyperbaric Oxygen" guy should stop giving medical advice on medical problems you don't have deep knowledge in.
Show just one bad advice we gave out on hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Stop complaining if you cannot read and understand HBOT.
HBOT is needed as a stand-alone or support treatment in almost every medical discipline. If you don't understand something please ask.
hatozeck: Please I need recommendation for a good and effective medicine that can help improve autism in a 5 years old kid. The little boy is my brother's son and they're based in Dubai. He recently contacted someone on tiktok who claimed he has the medicine but after making payment of 420k, the person stopped responding. (Below is a screenshot of his tiktok page).
Because of this, he now asked to see if I can get anyone selling similar medicine here in Nigeria hence the reason for this thread. I hope to get the medicine, pay for it and waybill it over to them so if you know anyone with similar case and how it got improved, I would very much appreciate it if you can share the process and the medicine that was used
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (hbot) helps children with autism very well. Since the child is in Dubai the parents can find an HBOT clinic near him that can offer HBOT.
If you are thinking of high cost of HBOT in Dubai what you can do is to make use of our HBOT in Nigeria. We can discuss details through WhatsApp phone number.
We never ask anyone to pay or send money without seeing some results of treatment.
Mensah007: I’m have a 23-year-old with some developmental challenges. He’s a bit coordinated and doesn’t show typical Down syndrome features, but he has learning difficulties, cant read nor write, and speech and understanding is like of a 5 year old.
I’d like to understand his condition better and explore if it might be a mild form of Down syndrome or something else.
Which hospitals in Anambra state can I go to see a specialist doctor for this.
For the treatment we can help with hyperbaric oxygen therapy HBOT in Port Harcourt. As for the level of disability a neuropsychiatrist is needed for assessment.
Watch this video to understand what HBOT can do for him: What he needs is an improvement and not cure as some misguided persons would want to misinterpreted our intentions. HBOT providers.
ebuka10box: Please I'm trying so hard not to feel depressed about this but the doctor said I'll be okay in a space of 3 - 6 months . Please has any one here experienced facial partial stroke and what was your experience?
If you are diagnosed with Bells palsy or facial paralysis:.
If stroke has resulted into sudden blindness or vision loss and victims have quickly reported for hyperbaric oxygen treatment - hbot, there is high hope for recovery of sight.
Early reporting is key to a successful recovery from central retina artery occlussion -crao.
CRAO stops the retina from receiving blood and oxygen to the retina and this may occur suddenly. In this condition no treatment works better than HBOT.
Cuttycool: Has anyone succeessfully treated numbness in feet before? How did you treat it?
Trauma can cause severe pain and numbness in the foot. For a faster relief and healing I have used hyperbaric oxygen therapy -hbot for a UK patient who travelled to PH.. To date there has been no recurrence.
If you are interested do your own research or reach out to us for explanation.
This is serious, the picture is at the bottom of this post.
My friend got injured by broken bottles and a solar battery that hit his leg. Ever since then, these minor injuries have been expanding. He has admitted to me just now that he's got sickle cell, he had started with injections amd I was terrified that he wasn't taking any pills. When I arrived, he was already complaining of pains...
We switched to just pills few days ago, and he is still complaining of pains and stomach ache. The wounds remove pusses from time to time. The last time he had an injury at that same spot, it took a little over a year before it healed — that was when I advised he take a break from work and go treat himself.
Now, he's always complaining of pains, stomach ache (he believes it's from the pills he's taking), and not being able to walk (although it's gotten a little better).
Please what do you suggest? Doctors in the house. I brought it here on this section because it has a huge traffic. Note that he's been to plenty of hospitals when he had that first injury but it only got worst...
Sicklecell disease, pain, non healing wound, suffering and suffering etc. When he suffers such complex issues it means the body can benefit from oxygen.via hbot
Ignoring HBOT is ignoring common sense. HBOT can save you from a prolonged illness and improve your wellbeing.
After such a lengthy and painful ordeal it is wise to ensure that the wound left behind does not form a scar tissue. Scar tissues form obstacles to blood flow and in swallowing.
HBOT is available to prevent these complications that are not easily treatable.
Ehismarkninetee: I was introduced to Tramadol in 2015 because I complained to him that I wasn’t lasting long during sex. So he prescribed Tm to me. At first I hated the feeling I just took it because it really helped with the early ejaculation.
Fast forward to 2020; I am now fully attended to this evil, it is now holding me by my neck, choking me . But I cannot seem to let go.
Tramadol has taken a lot from me; My pride, my focus, my Looks, my health, my family and most importantly my finances. I have had serious seizures that nearly took my life with my family members as witness. Now they know my situation and they are indeed very disappointed in me.
I had another seizure yesterday but the worst part of it is that it wasn’t only the seizure, I was acting demented with my clothes off. I take nothing less than 1500mg daily.
It has ruined everything because just calculate how much I have to spend for this evil everyday. For example I didn’t miss one last year 2024. It seems am now powerless to this evil. I cannot hustle anymore, I just want to take Tramadol and just lock myself indoors, all my friends have left me behind but am still living with my mum at age 31. Indeed am tired. Am really tired
I need help to stop this. I have prayed, I have tried everything. It’s not working. Please has anyone been in the situation before?? Please help me!!!!!

Tilda143: Please what ibile way? At where was it done. Kindly help before they amputate my mum's leg
Dead tissues must be debrided but to avoid amputation hyperbaric oxygen -hbot must be used to revive dying tissues and fast track healing of wounds. Many patients will say their doctors did not inform them earlier.
ItsTutsi: That’s a short term solution, I don’t want to rely on drugs
