I was diagnosed around 2. My parents were tested and my mom is AC and my dad AS. I did not start having serious problems until I turned 19. Hydroxyurea did not work and most of the treatments they have available either do not work or we don't qualify for treatments due to type. I was going to try a stem cell transplant but my sister is only my haplotype match so the doctor advised against it.

While I'm sorry to hear that. I'm #HBGSS. SORRY YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH THAT.

[@Basilicum_Raspberry]

Got it too. Got diagnosed at birth. But back then there was even less known about it than now. Thanks for sharing!
