I am very sorry to hear his sister is not a HLA match.
Do you feel comfortable by 7.4 gl/dl?
Its ok Dori,,,
i leave it at gods hand. Frankly speaking if you're asking me if i'm comfortable with 7.4, well i do feel comfortable coz i see him as a normal kid without any symptoms whatsoever,,i mean normal kid,,,but the only thing that worries me is that,,his spleen is enlarged etc. I sure hope that he does not need to have BT monthly.
To the rest of the group members
Well here's an update on Aqeel,,,,we went to the tole (
www.thetole.org/) the other day (last saturday to be exact). I told the master (or the chinese doctor) about aqeel and he gave us a compilation of different herbs in 7 packets, for 7 days and were told to see him again after a week. During the visit also he did some acupuncture on Aqeel by sticking those tiny needles (4 of them) at Aqeel's leg for half an hour.
I didn't ask much then, but for sure i'm gonna ask him more during our next visit that is this coming Saturday. There, i see a lot of people there coming from all over malaysia including Sabah (West Malaysia) ,,infact saw some foreigners there too. Btw, that particular clinic was officiated way back in 1993 by former health minister of Malaysia.
We have given Aqeel twice (2 days) the herbs, the herbs has to be boiled and simmer and it tastes bitter (very very bitter). Currently we are wait and see status.
Since Aqeel next appointment to the hospital is on the 6th day of having the herbs this friday, sure hope that there's positive result.
Will update u guys later when possible
