Sickle Cell Disorders

Sickle Cell Disorder is the term used to describe a group of inherited blood disorders that affect the haemoglobin in red blood cells. The three main types of SCDs are:
  • Sickle Cell Anaemia

  • I only know a little about Haemoglobin SC and Sickle Beta Thalassaemia, but not enough to give you a concise definition of what they are. Of course I know mostly about what I have had all my life. Any information which may be included about Sickle Cell will not be from my knowledge.

    As I have Sickle Cell Anaemia, I have mainly concentrated on this on my site.
