    I was treating with hydroxyurea more than 30 years ago this medicine is amazing but sure every chemical medication has side effect but by calculating the positivity of the medication with the side effect, I chose the medication because it can treat almost 90% of my SCD crises, so you have to know exactly what your son needs sure the doctor advice is taking in account.

    In case of hard Crisis I wish to drive me emergency, in normal cases just need for emotional support.

  • For me I hate the emergency room because the procedure take too much time and I’m in the middle of crisis, what would say to quickly verify the SCD patients and directly proceed the routine procedure for the patients and no need to wait too much time.

    Usually @Michael I’m living in warm and hot area I hate cold such as Europe area almost cold all the year just now exception I knew that is hot everywhere in Europe I don’t like to say hate it but hate to live in that area, the coldest area that I lived in is Augsburg in Germany I think in that time the temperature was -12 Celsius degree I was in taring curse with my company team, I almost spent all my time in hotel beside the heater hehehehe, Moring time in the training hours after that back to hotel, I wished that time to get outside with my friends but it was too much cold in that time, that because I stay in hotel all the time until the training curse finished almost one month.
