Thank you so much

6:45 a higher calcium diet in rats delayed hypertrophy. Bp medication made it worse. Careful though: large intake will result in more urinary calcium, effected by calcitonin, and the precalcitonin levels are used to diagnose serious infections. So calcium intake right before a blood test should be avoided

Please stop telling providers the genotype HbSC is “ milder” by the time a person reaches adulthood it all becomes severe

I find the video very helpful, but the mutation occurs on the 11th chromosome, not the 6th chromosome.

[@rukayarasheed5421]

Its 6 chromosome not 11

​@@rukayarasheed5421I don't know everything, but I see the 11th in what I have read, if it would be easy for you, could you please provide me a source to check? Here are some sources that state the 11th: www.genome.gov/Genetic-Disorders/Sickle-Cell-Disease#:~:text=Sickle%20cell%20disease%20is%20caused,and%20glide%20through%20blood%20vessels. www.cdc.gov/genomics/about/basics.htm
