Sickle Cell trait pain

[MrsReese]

I am a 26 year old female. I was told that I carried the sickle cell trait and I’m anemic. I am in so much pain to where my body hurts. I take iron and B12 faithfully but I can’t get answers from anyone. I’m always exhausted and I have so much pain in my joints. My stomach hurts like hell. Is sickle cell trait crisis still not a thing?

I bet it's still not a thing yet. Lol.

Anyway you are not alone. I also have the same issues. I have SCT, Anaemic, joint hurts etc. I tried Iron supplements and I had some serious side effects so I had to stop. I'm trying to eat plenty of iron rich foods, hope it will make a difference.

I hope your pains gets better too.
