Singapore Conference Report

(1/9) > >>

Andy Battaglia:
I just want to check in and give a short report on the first day of he conference. The previous issue has been resolved and we are attending what we want/need to see. One thing I will be stressing even more, if possible, is the role of antioxidants in combating the damaging effects of iron in the cells. Studies have shown there is no doubt at all that antioxidants play a big role in maintaining the health of thalassemics. Vitamin E should be taken in a dosage of at least 600 IU daily. 1000 IU is a safe and effective dose for thals. I will be taking more about this in the future. Do not underestimate what you can do for yourself by taking safe, natural supplements.

Andy,

Thank you for the report.  I'm also glad that you are having access to the information you require. Is sounds like a good day at the conference.  That is wonderful news, to know that they are stressing the use of vitamin supplements - because as you have said - this is
something we can do for ourselves.  I am looking forward to hearing what else you learn!

Thank you,

Sharmin

So relieved to know you are there and getting the latest information for the members.

Andy Battaglia:
Things opened up so everyone can go where they wish. I wondered how they would police the chaos and it proved impossible. Ironically, one book available at the conference is a book produced by TIF, solely about patient rights. I didn't realize that the patient rights I take for granted are not to be found in some countries. This has to change. Patients need to be aware that they do have a right to be informed and to decide for themselves, every aspect of their care. Nothing less can be accepted.
