It is unfortunate that you have suffered from symptoms with sickle cell trait. I also have sickle cell trait and suffer with symptoms. I hope more research will be done too.

Oh I hear ya! But doctors dont know why. CBD oil is a great pain reliever, I swear by it. It last 8 hours, I use it all winter cuz I end up in the hospital soon as it gets cold. It is so painful it's even affecting my kidneys right now.
