Hello everyone,

Have a great day love you all XxXx

How long have you been using this supplement?

Hello Maryoom

You shouldn't be annoyed but rather happy :biggrin :biggrin

May be the last time you had your transfusion, the blood was so fresh, that is why its life span was longer than the usual. One friend of mine had a gap of 6 and half weeks instead of her usual 4 weeks because of the same reason.

Concerning the bee pollen, do you feel any difference after taking it??

Thals should transfuse before the HB drops below 9.
Andy

All we are saying is give thals a chance.

How about children? Jia's Hb was 7.8 2 months ago pre transfusion, 8.5 last week pre transfusion. Mostly he is around 8.8 to 9.2. If given too much blood, he feels dizzy afterwards. Difficult to know the optimum level.

Hello everyone, Im gonna try to answer everyone lol sorry If I skipped anyone and I do apologize for my late reply I just had my BT yesterday and first day of uni for this course so yeah here goes nothing LOL,

Manar: Hi there :D Im glad to hear from you and thnx for your sweet explanation and example there so YAAAY i am happy and that maybe true because I recieve Iradiated blood, The bee pollen effect on me I would say it makes me feel a lil more energatic slightly refreshed plus I love the taste of the pills they taste like pure honey YUM.

Nana: Hello :> I dont know about others but in Kuwait Dr's wouldnt let you take blood if your level is above 10, For me I prefer to not let it drop below 10 as I've already said RBC's do carry oxygen through our body and our bones need oxygen, thals red blood cells arnt healthy enough to carry good amount of oxygen so when our HB is low the bone structure changes (eg. wider cheek bones etc...) all of this is because the bone surfac wants  oxygen there for it becomes wider, I like to keep my looks as healthy as my health so yeah I do keep my self on a tight scedual on when to have my BT.

TariQ: Hello there, I've been taking them for two months now.

Mr Khalifa: haha no comment, thanks so much for this usefull information and actually I do have my spleen so its not removed this may be a good reason , yes al7amdila inshallah your son dont need these stuff anymore.
