DIANE
HI STACI, THE INFO YOU HAVE WAS VERY HELPFUL TO ME. I WILL CHANGE MY DIET AND EAT NO RED MEATS (THAT WILL BE HARD, SINCE I LOVE MY STEAKS). I WAS DIAGONIS WHEN I WAS A TEENAGER WT AEMIA, THEN SICKLE CELL TRAITS. OCT OF 2000 I WAS TOLD I HAD BETA THALASSEMIA. WHICH I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT. I AM 45 YEARS OLD AND CAN FEEL THE EFFECT OF THIS CONDITION. I HAVE BEEN OVERLY TIRED AND JUST DON'T FEEL LIKE MY PERKY SELF. WHEN I WAS YOUNG I JUST SLEEP ALOT (8-10 HOURS) NOW THAT I HAVE COMPUTER AND CAN GET ON THE INTERNET. I CAN FIND OUT HOW OTHER PEOPLE DEAL WITH THIS DISEASE. YOU BEEN A GREAT HELP. GOD BLESS YOU SINCERLY DIANE
