Hi everyone,I'm new here,I'm a carrier too...21years,crisis hits often,pains regularly,yunno nobody really understands the pain so I felt if I could talk to people that are like me,I would feel better,that's y I'm here......I don't know if there's an exercise meant for sicklers.... at times I can't walk well,not pain,just like an internal dislocation that prevents me from walking properly,I don't know what to do I'm booked for a scan tho..anybody here experiencing the same??...also priapism???
