NEED HELP FROM IN-HOUSE DOCTORS
Gudday aunty stella,this is my first time of writing on the doctors in house news..
My boyfriend decide to go for a genotype test last month and he was AS,so I decide to go and quickly check mine yesterday and my result came out and am also an AS,I am so confuse about everything.I love my boyfriend and we can't just separate from each other.
Am askin for an advise from the doctors ,if there is a way, myself and my boyfriend can get married without giving birth to an SS child,we don't mind the risk of the treatment it might take us,
I heard of IVF,but I don't know if we can be able to go through that treatment,please I need advise from the doctors please..
hmm! When u give birth to SS, the love will not be so strong o. Am not a doctor but the one ve heard of is aborting any baby that is SS when u get pregnant. Dont know how it works though.
ReplyDeleteI can imagine how you both feel about separating and it will be difficult but, just do it.
DeleteMeanwhile you both can get second and third opinions from other medical facilities first.
If you're both really carriers, your best option is to separate and look for other partners.
Be strong for the sake of your future progeny.
Dnt be silly younglady.
ReplyDeleteWalk out of dt relationship for d sake of ur unboun kids.
There is probability that if u gv birth dey all might be AA and also 50% chance dt dey might be carriers #AS and also 50% that they all might be SS...so i ask again,do u want to take dt risk?
Biko go look for some1 to channel dt love to.
It irks me dt wv all d awareness concerning sickle cell some people are just too stubborn and bent on ruining their lives
@poster, pls leave that relationship. I ended a 5 year relationship because of that issue too. Found out we were both AS after 5 years. It was like my world had ended. But guess what, I got married to an AA guy 2 years later and my ex is also married to another person also. We are still friends and have happy marriages. Its not the end of the world and you are not alone. The physical,emotional, financial strain it would put on your marriage isn't worth it. God bless you
DeleteHonestly I tire ooooo.
DeleteI read of the bone marrow treatment in India.
ReplyDeleteBut nnem I'll advise you to jejely seperate from him now after you've done like two other confirmatory tests.
Because when you finally marry this guy, you'll be shocked how this butterflies in your tummy will run to sambisa
Hahaha....butterflies will run to sambisa...u don kolo ooo
DeleteNOT again!!
ReplyDeleteI thought this As and Ss matter has been dealt with here before,?? I won't advice As and As getting married .
ReplyDeleteDon't mind them...
DeleteThey will keep asking same questions over and over and over and over....
Infact,most people here don't read and learn from other people's story...
Over treated sef!!!!
DeleteIt isn't worth it me dear...
There's no way dear, don't risk it and put your children in perpetual suffering. Sorry. Best wishes.
ReplyDeletePls put an end to that relationship and stop deceiving yourself.
ReplyDeleteYou both ain't compatible.
No they are compartible...
DeleteThat's what she want us to tell her..
Yeye dey smell...
u guys better sperate before u regret it in future
ReplyDeleteMy cousin who is AS and married AS did that IVF stuff it failed cos the baby was still AS. Science and medicine fails sometimes. Please, its difficult but try and keep the love aside and consider the future of your children. The suffering is way too much, trust me.
ReplyDelete"The baby was still AS" so how did it fail? The idea is to avoid having SS kids, so if they had AS isn't that okay?
DeleteIt is well
ReplyDeleteU don't mind d risk of the treatment. So ure not even concerned about d severe torture and pain that child will go thru. Ure heartless!!!
ReplyDeleteDon't mind her!
Delete"Love e killi me, I die."
Exactly, the children are my concern, they will be the one to suffer it. Love no dey blind these days oh. Poster take note.

Am a doctor though am not a frequent visitor to this blog. The only advice I can give is to forget about the guy to be on the safe side. IVF or no IVF.

DeleteGo for a test dear so u know what exactly ur treating and visit your doctor asap. Thanks

ReplyDeleteBetter break up with how now, before you get married and start heaping your frustrations on each other
ReplyDelete*him
DeletePlease, walk away. I know it is painful, but it is the bitter truth. By the way, are you sure your boyfriend's test result is genuine? I ask this because I live in a house that has a medical laboratory and if I start saying the things I see and hear daily, you will be shocked.

ReplyDeleteGod bless you Yomi, most guys can lie for Africa. When they get tired of a pussy, they come up with all sorts of lies to get ride of it. That was how an idiot lied to my elder sister he was AS cause she is one. Left her and married someone else barely three months later. Now he is resting with his ancestors just six months after the wedding. (R.I.P) My sister later got a letter he sent before his death apologising for lying to her. Men!!!
DeleteWOW!!!!!
DeleteCancel that Marriage and save ur Unborn Child that embarrassment.
ReplyDeleteYou will forever hate your self if u ignore.
You people don't hear. Find someone else ASAP. Except you are financially stable enough to go through IVF & gene selection.
ReplyDeleteHian!!
ReplyDeleteYou guys had better break up and move on with your lives. Love kor Lovett ni
When trouble starts, una no go remember love again sef msheww
Lol @ lovett
DeleteWhy you wan use your hand cause whala for yourself..the best thing is to quit d relationship now. And move on with your life
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmmm
ReplyDeleteOver to the doctors
Poster I suspect you
ReplyDelete1. This is your first time of writing on doctors in house section so you have written on other articles
2. You are ready to go through any risk of treatment N you can't go through IVF?
3. I don't know what you want to hear
4. Anyway, I did mine twice the first time I was AA, second time I was AS, so maybe you should go do it again.
Lol me too o first test was AA second As
DeleteUna no dey hear word hian?? Please consider future problems too
ReplyDeleteIt was in dose days dat people make dis mistakes.... Plz i know is not easy but plz leave ur bf.... U shudnt go down dat road i tell u.... Mayb uve not stayed close to people dat have ss children,,,, uve not seen wat dey are going tru... If u have u wont tink of it
ReplyDeleteHmmm wetin love go cause for dis world...
ReplyDeletePlease safe the life of that unborn child oooo
First time here
ReplyDeleteNa the same rope tie me n dis poster, waiting to read comment.
ReplyDeleteThen get married na, mtcheeww, since you both can't bear to be with out each other. Nonsense.
ReplyDeleteYour only option is to always test the foetus genotype and God help you if it continues to be SS, you will keep aborting. The worst thing a parent can do is to put your feelings before your kids. Better use your head and look for another dick. Kapish?

Pls weigh the treatment options and the efficacy of each option, if the chances are low, dnt get married to him and birth children to come and suffer, even the parents suffer financially and psychologically too. Btw, hw old are u that u just discovered ur genotype after having a boyfriend? I knew mine wen i was in secondary school b4 having a bf. Wen i met a guy, i only made sure he was nt an SS cos i already knew i was AA genotype. So, pls bvs, know ur genotype today to avoid stories like dis..

ReplyDeleteI just get soo pissed off when seemingly educated people think and reason like illiterates mtcheeww.
ReplyDeleteIn lay man's term that junction wey you stand so, road no dey there, better reverse.
# Ayah Shehu #
Thing is that when your child turns out to be Ss, The love will disappear. So be wise
ReplyDeleteShut up dere and end d relationship before u start sending in chronicles
ReplyDelete......nonsense n ingredients
Na dis same love make my neighbor lose 3 kids to sickle cell. Now love don go. DE oga don give one student belle. If u see her nw she be like person wey dey Koloa. Leave dis matter o.
ReplyDeleteposter Pls walk away now that u still can. though science has evolved, it involves a lot of abortion and "try n error ivf's". The safest way is for u to marry someone else
ReplyDeleteYou can check your foetus Genotype at 3 month,they do it at LuTh in Lagos that's what my friend does and she have her children who are not carrier,though one pregnancy was and they terminated it and she got pregnant a month after and went for the check again and this time she was lucky and if you have money if you stall have an Ss you can do a bone marrow operation though is expensive(like 20 million naira in Italy). Come to think of it,does it worth it.? The choice is yours
ReplyDeleteBy the time u watch ur mates children growing with health and urs always in hospital, small compared to age mates that's when the love will evaporate from ur eyes. Abeg commot from that relationship which kind love, to make u suffer innocent unborn children. Save ur children that pain biko. U will surely find another love.

Stella Nwunye Korkus kip up d good work u r doing on ur blog_ educating, informing n entertaining bvs. Anyways, I think its high time u dd a post in other to address this sickle cell n genotype issue. Those who are AS shud know to expect wen dey decide t allow "Love" becloud dia senses of reasoning n dey get married. Love is neva enof wen an SS child is born. shout it loud n clear f those who r romantically deaf. I see no reason why two ppl who r of age n in a r\ship wud not care t know dia genotype n even blood group until marriage plans are in view. Ignorance is no excuse. enof is enof!
ReplyDeleteFor the sake of love (sounds paradoxical, right?), you may need to walk away from that relationship. But if you insist, then you must be financially and emotionally ready for IVF and preimplantation diagnosis (PGD). After IVF, before embryo transfer into your womb, a cell is extracted from each of the embryos and analyzed. Those with sickle cell gene will be discarded while the normal ones are transfered. I wrote "emotionally ready" cos of failure rate of IVF (you may be lucky, though) and PGD itself, is not 100% certain. I don't know of any other way. Good luck.
ReplyDeletePls walk away wit now now oo,i walk in a hospital for children $ I knw the kind of excruciating pain they pass thru or is it the blood transfusion on a monthly basis and the parents will be crying like they neva knew wat they were getting into.some of the stupid deluded ones will tell u by God's grace they will not have ss children,one even said it's not her portion when her child result came out ss $ was abusing everyone in the hospital.if u knw what's good for u dear,just take a walk.cause when ss children start coming,that love will turn to hate,misery and agony
