new kid on the block ;)
« on: November 11, 2007, 03:08:26 PM »
Hello all,

I am Jackie I am Dutch and live in the Netherlands. I am born with a rare bonemarrow disorder named congenital aplastic anaemia.This disorder it is very much related to Diamond Blackfan Anemia and Thalassemia major. I am transfusion dependend since my day of birth. Which is 28 june 1963.  Every 5-6 weeks I download some red cells : ) mostly 2 or 3 packed cells. Since February 2006 I get my transfusion at home. Very luxurary.
I used to use Desferal since 1967, but at the moment I don't use any chelation therapy at all. This is my own choice and I am fully aware of the consequences.


if you want to find out more about me, feel free to ask me. I hope that I may join this group even if I am not a thala like you.

My website is in the Dutch language and I do have an English weblog (alhough my English is a kind of rusty  :rotfl

Hello and welcome :)

I'm really sad to hear that ur not using any treatments :( u should always be positive any continue to take good care of your self... your body is a gift from god that you should treat well and these days thalassemia treatments are developing and if you dont want needles you can take tabletes (exjade) so plllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllz try to treat your iron :)

wish u good luck and u have my support :)
