Also! I forgot to mention this! But at 2:25 what I had _wasn't_ a Blood Transfusion, but a Red Cell Exchange! Two completely different definitions in medical terminology!
Yes, that is true. However, there are many preparations that are needed for a Transplant. In this instance, I was put under anesthesia so they could install a line in my chest to take blood and/or insert IV fluids into my body (including the eventual injection you were speaking about). Not only that, but the Transplant itself takes place over a very long period of time (if you’re including preparations, induction of radiation, the transplant day itself, recovery, and side effects). Even at the time of writing this comment, I’m still having to visit the hospital for issues relating to my transplant. But, I thank you for your question, and I hope this answered it!
@@Rene-uz3eb Well I list alot of them in my Conclusion video, so if you haven't seen that I would strongly recommend that. But, to list a few here, I've been dealing with knee problems due to the radiation, mucus in my ears caused from infection (which required the implant of tubes in my ears for a year, they are still in my ears now), the usage of a foot brace due to an injury I had that is slightly related to the transplant, issues due to tirdness, weekly; monthly; and yearly checkups from the doctors to make sure everything is going well, and several other things that I may have forgotten. Hope that helps!
@@pagepurpose1165 Thanks for the info, sorry to hear it didn't go smooth, I suppose that's to be expected with the chemo and radiation. Hope you get better. It's kind of a pity since you don't have scd anymore they don't give you hydroxyurea, that or iron chelators can do wonders, esp recommended after transfusions but for some reason they forget to do that in SCD. Also daily large vitamin D to prevent infections. Happy new year 🎊
My name is Tolia. I was discover am Sickell cell anemia. I am 24yrs please I need your help is treatment please? I am in Nigeria and I come for poor family 😢😢😢
If you aren't already Christian, I would recommend coming to find God. Because, with the help of God, he can help you find a cure or some elevation during this difficult process. I can tell you that if it weren't for God, I wouldn't have been able to make it through this process. I will be praying for you, and hoping that God will give you insight on a way to find a cure! God bless!

What surgery?? Anesthesia? The 'transplant' is an IV injection

@@pagepurpose1165 thanks for the clarification
@@pagepurpose1165 if I may ask what are the continuing problems with the transplant that require going to hospital?
