Well the news that doctors share isn't 100% accurate, that is very false information that because you have the trait you won't have symptoms. The trait is an blood disorder so that means because our red blood cells aren't fully normal we have sickled ones that at anytime can sickle. So the symptoms are coming from the trait the trait can have many symptoms like disease make sure to do your research and listen to your body because we know our bodies I also experience symptoms really bad chest pain and problems in high altitude while traveling.
