Sickle cell disease is an inherited disorder. It affects the shape of red blood cells, which carry oxygen throughout the body.
Red blood cells are usually round and flexible, so they can move easily through blood vessels. In sickle cell disease, some red blood cells become crescent or sickle-shaped. These cells also become rigid and sticky, restricting the blood flow.

Facts. Nothing worse than going to a hospital for help because the pain is so excruciating, that you can no longer move with out wincing or screaming. The people you went to for help, judge you, profile you, scoff and treat you like a junkie. They don't listen to you. They leave you in a room and make you wait for hours before doing something to make it better. It gets significantly worse and puts your life in jeopardy. Unfortunately, that's what a lot of people with Sickle Cell Anemia experience, everytime they go to the ER. Not all nurses do this but there are a lot who do, and it's a problem. We gotta do better. . . . #sicklecellsoldier #sicklecellfighter #sicklecellanemia #invisibleillness #sicklecellawareness #sicklecellanemia #sicklecellwarriors #keepfighting #nevergiveup https://www.instagram.com/p/B8AHgnIgBN0/?igshid=9pdlqbt735bq
I'm all smiles tonight cause I'm finally home! I wanna thank everyone who reached out, called, messaged, came to the hospital, kept me in your thoughts and prayers. It really means the world to me. It helps to know that people care enough to go out of their way to check up on how I'm doing. Y'all kept me positive when I was having a hard time keeping it positive. The love and support really helps get me through the rough times in hospital. Words can never express what it means to me. Thank you all so much. I love you all! Bless! Tomorrow I'll be doing an interview on @lastcallpc all about Sickle Cell Anemia in a means to spread awareness and to inform people on what it's all about! Hope you'll take the time to tune in and check it out! . . . #sicklecellwarrior #sicklecellstrong #sicklecellsoldier #sicklecellfighter #sicklecellanemia #sicklecellawareness #sicklecelllife #yeg #yyz #yyc #yvr #canada #sicklecellawarnessmonth #djlife #djpodcast #podcast #podcastlife #MakeDjingFunAgain https://www.instagram.com/p/B2qFbvAAtGa/?igshid=6arvvgvjcgnq
Depending on where the pain is and how severe the pain is... sometimes it feels like I have shards of broken glass running through my veins. Sometimes the pain gets so bad that I can't move, can't even be touched, no position brings comfort because everything hurts. Like all my bones were broken or something... When even the simple act of breathing becomes unbearable, like my ribs are being crushed with each breath taken... that's what's a sickle cell pain crisis feels like, to me. . . . #sicklecellwarrior #sicklecellstrong #sicklecellsoldier #sicklecellfighter #sicklecellanemia #sicklecellawareness #sicklecelllife https://www.instagram.com/p/B2nftvkA44Q/?igshid=mvye9p6fwt4b
#repost @lastcallpc Shout out to @lastcallpc very own @djgrizz who is currently in hospital fighting off a Sickle Cell Crisis. For those of you who don't know, he suffers from Sickle Cell Anemia. What's Sickle Cell Anemia, you ask? Well, tonight's episode will be pushed back a day or two, we're hoping he gets to come home tomorrow. As soon as he does, we'll be good to go because, September is Sickle Cell Awareness Month! Our first episode this season will be a interview with @djgrizz conducted by @djdillonroberts all about Sickle Cell Disease as a means to use this platform form and inform you, the listener's, all about Sickle Cell Anemia and help spread awareness! . . . #sicklecellwarrior #sicklecellstrong #sicklecellsoldier #sicklecellfighter #sicklecellanemia #sicklecellawareness #sicklecelllife #yeg #yyz #yyc #yvr #canada #sicklecellawarnessmonth #djlife #djpodcast #podcast #podcastlife #MakeDjingFunAgain https://www.instagram.com/p/B2iYfT4gU9p/?igshid=1jxpg9rqnav5w
I touched on this in my last post, it's crazy how many complications occur just from a lack of oxygen or the inability of oxygen getting to places in the body where it is crucial and necessary. One of my biggest triggers is stress, if I allow myself to get stressed out it can and will trigger a sickle cell crisis, kinda like how some people get a headache after a stressful day. Only for me, it's much more intense and can even be extremely life threatening. Last week I encountered a very stressful situation, and like clockwork, today I had to be admitted to hospital due to a full body crisis. . . . #sicklecellwarrior #sicklecellstrong #sicklecellsoldier #sicklecellfighter #sicklecellanemia #sicklecellawareness #sicklecelllife #yeg #yyz #yyc #yvr #canada #sicklecellawarnessmonth (at University of Alberta Hospital) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2f6KXTAQ7o/?igshid=xpwhhmjah0z6
Normal healthy blood cells can last up to 130 days, while sickle cells only last up to 10 - 20 days. This cause major problems as our red cells carry oxygen throughout our body. Without sufficient oxygen in our bodies it causes many complications. Such as excruciating pain anywhere but mostly in the abdomen, chest, bones and joints, causes stroke, frequent infections, delayed growth, vision problems, blindness, fever, painful swelling of hands and feet, pulmonary hypertension, organ damage, leg ulcers and gallstones. I can tell you from personal experience that the pain is incredible. I have experienced almost all of these complications at some point or another. . . . #sicklecellwarrior #sicklecellstrong #sicklecellsoldier #sicklecellfighter #sicklecellanemia #sicklecellawareness #sicklecelllife #yeg #yyz #yyc #yvr #canada #sicklecellawarnessmonth https://www.instagram.com/p/B2dB-7hAy1T/?igshid=zqe539avbnbx
I suffer from Sickle Cell Anemia and I'm gonna share my experiences with this condition, what it is, how it affects my day to day, and spread awareness about it.
