I agree with the op 110%. Was so excited to see the topic believing that finally people will understand that if an 'ss' child is born to a couple with as and aa, it won't readily be assumed to be infidelity. You can imagine my surprise and disappointment from 'colleagues' who failed to understand this basic concept. Note: Apologies to the mod but in order to help spread the word, I have taken it upon myself to mention and reply to as much people as I can individually why this is possible in our environment. This is just too important t to ignore. Lives and marriages gave been destroyed in the past and I am only trying to ameliorate that. Thanks for your understanding. |

To help explain further, our people wrongly believe that its only ss that is Sickle cell disease. In truth, there are many 'combinations' like SC, SB-thal, SD punjab etc. (notice they all have one thing in common, at least one S in the combination) Now let's put our heads together, how do you think people get these other types? .... Ans: exactly the same way you get the ss. So, if you are AS and get married to AC, AB-thal, or Ad punjab, u stand a risk of getting a child with Sickle cell disease. It's that simple. Another question... How many of our labs here in Nigeria do you think can correctly detect AC, AB-thal, or Ad punjab? Ans: Basically a few. I saw my first SC in a px 2 years ago in a 17 year old who was told her whole life that she was AS. Most labs can't pick up the C, b thal or d punjab, once they see an A with no S, they automatically assume it to be AA but in truth might actually be AC, AB-thal, or Ad punjab. In essence, it is possible for 'AA' (wc we know might actually be AC, AB-thal, or Ad punjab) to get married to AS and give birth to SC, SB-thal, SD punjab.. (wc again our labs will incorrectly call SS since they lack the proper equip to detect the C, b thal or d punjab. I hope I have sufficiently cleared the air. Now, please go and spread the word and stop castigating that poor innocent woman. |

AlphaT1: Na na na, never supported him na. If you read my submission I made it clear that thalasaemia and HbSS are two different disease entities even though they are both forms of SCD and the way to diagnose them are different as well. But if you look at what the Op said about the SS determined by electrophoresis, I think he made it clear it was not the real SS and that was why I brought the issue of quantitative analysis, because someone may be labelled SS not knowing that there may be a missing Hb chain. And I also think the Op's topic is misleading. Thanks thanks thanks my brother |

Oga Op your title is misleading ooo, there can be misdiagnosis of S B- thalasaemia showing as SS yes we accept but advanced screening will be able to differentiate the two. Its quite dangerous for you to just come and say AA plus AS can give you SS, do you know the panic it can cause for people who don't even have an idea of what you are talking about and all they know is AA , As can marry. I just don't understand how people post things these days, this is Nairaland not medic- land. Your audience should determine how you post. How many peeps even understand what you are saying, now its on FP. You should have said SB- thallesaemia can be misdiagnosed as SS in Nigeria and there will be a healthy discussion about that and everybody will understand. Besides thallesemias are not so common over here. |
