the last time I checked my genotype it was BB

***do you have a hole in the head?? hehehehehe!

Moi is SSS

bettercreature:
AA are good in term of sickle cell but not good when it comes to Malaria

***yea, in terms of the morphology of the red blood cells (RBC), they have a high affinity for Oxygen and bind O2 more efficiently making the plasmodium falciparium thrive better and reproduce more. Well, that's a smalll price to pay by the AA genotype-individuals as compared to the threatening ordeals seen by the SS patients.

Teempakguy:
Any SS here?

yeah I am. Are u one?

then you must be a monkey

jonaji:
Know your genotype before you say yes to that
handsome guy and beautiful lady whom you
wish to spend the rest of your life with.

Genotype and It's Appropriate Suitor:

AA + AA = Excellent

AA + AS = Good

AA + SS = Fair

AS + AS = Bad

AS + SS = Very Bad

SS + SS = Extremely Bad (In fact, don't try it).


#SickleCellAwareness

Pls share with others...

Additionally, if you and your prospective spouse have AS both, please don't deceive yourself thinking you could pray to scale through the probability, then have AA or AS kids.

If you want to know you guys are meant for each other then pray until one of you has his/her genotype miraculously changed or else DON'T marry.

Thanx!

Nawa oo, so people no know AC dey exist and not even included in d list.

All of u claiming to be AA God is watching oh

mine was Tecno

what about zz + mm =

theimmie:
What of AC and AA... What are the medical implications?

AC + AA
Will give you a probability of producing any of
AA, AC, AC, AA
in any given pregnancy.

bettercreature:
AC is hemoglobin not genotype,we have AC, SC,SS OR CC.

what do you mean by AC is hemoglobin? and you went ahead to list it as a variant of genotype.

damosade:
How about SC and AC. Update your self

SC + AC will produce
AS, SC, AC, CC
All these are probability in every pregnancy.

Pls, help me

I am responding to your post because of the bolded.
How old is your girl?
How often does she have crisis?
What are your fears?
Are you emotionally, and financially matured for marriage?
Can you take decisions for yourself, without bothering about what family and friends will say?
.
I am SS man, married to AA woman and I have a son. Am in my 30s and have not been hospitalized for a little over 3 years.
My wife knew about my genotype and still loved me despite it.
No one can make marriage decisions for you.

Teempakguy:
Any SS here?

Yes sir. I equally believe OP, is SS or has someone who is.

dmcdad:
Wow... Whats the extent of AC in relation to AS and SS?

AC + AS will likely produce, AA, AC, AS, SC That's the probability in every pregnancy.

It doesn't only apply to black people. we have people from India, Mexico, Latin Americans, etc who have Sickle Cell. But blacks are more in number.
Sickle Cell is not a racial problem.

Can I use the word,people of colour then,because I know for a fact that white people don't have sickle cell.

No. You are wrong. There are Caucasian (especially from Europe) who do have Sickle Beta Thalassemia. You can Google it.
