Lagusta: My guy don't say that. U should go to his school and contend his degree, we can't know it all. Among the top 3 causes of death in a research done at John-Hopkins last year was found to be doctors errors, those doctors also don't deserve medical degrees? Meanwhile, A lady who has 2 previous children and is rhesus negative gave birth recently, a direct coombs test and blood group was done for the new baby and the child was rhesus negative, I was happy for the child, question is would the woman need rhogam?, bearing the fact that the blood group of the other children are not known?, and they are not present to take their blood group. Lastly hemoglobinopathies and thalassemias are actually different. and are on different topic. Not all thalasemias are hemoglobinopathies. Do ur research. |

escodotman: I hope so too. Thalasemias, strictly speaking are not hemoglobinopathies, though some thalassemias can be, since hemoglobinopathies is really alteration in structure, while the other deal with production. There however is no need to query anyone's qualification, if u feel u know better simply explain professionally. 1 Like |

sgtponzihater1: No one is saying they are the same, what I am saying (and pointing out clearly) is that some thalassemias are a type of hemoglobinopathy, simple.... I have given you all sources and references... And please not from wikipedia.... Read up and let's move on abeg..... |

sgtponzihater1: At least you speak more professionally jare..... I believe we are saying the same thing, truly not all thalassemias are hemoglobinopathies but those types are very rare and incompatible with life..... We all know that.... Let's talk about common stuff... Once again, thanks for your mature approach |

sgtponzihater1:To give my contribution on this question, I think the woman should be given rhogam if the the father of the newborn baby is Rhesus positive. This will protect the susbsquent pregnancies from the HDNB. (haemolytic disease of the new born). Off the bathroom |

escodotman: I need some other contributions on this, this lady have had 2 previous babies for 2 previous men, rhesus negative, but doesn't know the blood group of the other men or the other babies, she gave birth recently, it was actually a twin pregnancy, while the leading twin survived, the second twin couldn't make it due to a difficult labour. I advised them for rhogam, since here previous babies might have been rhesus positive, the MO and matron however said they have been in practice over 20 years and the woman doesn't need it. |
Re: A Reply To The Topic: It Is Possible For AA And AS Couple To Have An SS Child by escodotman: 10:12am On Jul 16, 2017 |
sgtponzihater1:I get your question clearly now. The previous 2 babies' blood groups weren't known, neither were the blood group of their fathers. So the woman has another baby now who is Rhesus neg with the mother. Now, I also agree with them that the woman doesnt need Rhogam. The baby she just had is rhesus neg and defintely it means the father is also rhesus neg, so there's no need for Rhogam because subsequent pregancies (through the current husband) are not in danger of maternal-fetal red blood cell incompatibilty since both father and mother belong to thesame Rhesus blood group. About the previous 2 babies, the most likely scenerio is that both babies and their fathers are also Rhesus negative, like the mother and thats why the twin didnt suffer any intra-uterine haemolysis and its complications. You know the essence of the Rheso-gamma immunoglobulin is to ''mop'' up antibodies produced due to maternal-fetal red cells incompatibilty and protecting subsquent pregancies. I can assure you that the present husband is also Rhesus neg. Again, there's no way the previous babies were Rhesus positive. |

sgtponzihater1: On the contrary, I have no interest in slandering anyone and you are wrong to assume that all doctors know this. |
Re: A Reply To The Topic: It Is Possible For AA And AS Couple To Have An SS Child by escodotman: 10:33am On Jul 16, 2017 |
peacettw:My dear I can assure you that ALL Doctors know this. Peace |

Just to add to this as it is a very important topic. While there are other haemoglobinopathies (abnormal haemoglobins) apart from the well known and most common sickle haemoglobinopathies, these other types are not common among black Africans. Haemoglobin S and C are the types commonly found among black Africans. So it will still be VERY unusual for a purely Nigerian couple AA + AS to have an 'SS' child and should be investigated further if it happens. |

ryom:God bless you bro. You garrit. Social media will mislead a lot of innocent Nigerians. I was taught in medical school not to completely trust every article I see on the internet cos any quack could open Google and upload incorrect assertions. I was taught to even double-check or tripple check even the so-called medical journals! |
