ummmmmmmm i forgot to mention x_x
I'm sure I've said this several times elsewhere sooooooo~
I can't be too physically active since I have thalassemia, which is where blood cells are smaller than normal. (there's other symptoms too btw~)
Less oxygen isn't a huge problem as long as I'm not overly active~ I can walk for a long time, but running or things realy active will quickly put me out of breath for a long time. A long time ago I could do more active things, but the older i got, the more it tolled my body. There's also a bone issue in my chest where it's basically caging in on my heart~ Occasionally, it would start hurting to where I couldn't do anything but pray it doesn't close some blood flow. I've not had any issues with that for a year or so now, but I'm still told to not go further than I can go since the symptoms increase when I get out of breath more often.
There's no actual cure for this, and I don't really care since I can use it as an excuse sometimes XD
I'm pretty sure it's genetic, tho severity and symptoms vary, which my symptoms are apparently rare enough to not be mentioned? XD
ummmmm I think sickle cell is alot different. Sickle cell deals with the shape, Thalassemia deals with the size.
and again, it seems like I'm with the rare minority since minors "usually" don't have symptoms. In other words, they can occur under certain conditions, or not at all.
Genetic... its that whatever four boxes for genes and whatnot isnt it? :/ With 25% of getting more severe cases or none at all... and the other 50% for half and half... unless one of the parents have it severe... and all those other factors that would influence which they never really taught in high school :/
lol it's not like it ruins my life or anything~ I've never really cared about being athletic either~
ummm I think that the 4 box idea only works for specific genes. It doesn't account for the variations in either parent, both dominant and recessive. Who knows if the type of one is more dominant than a different one~? I mean, we have different looks and personalities right?
Hmm i gave my intro a month after i got here ;p I was well acquainted with a certain group by then But i dont think first impression online would have too much impact... well also depends what avi and stuff they say...
Hmm so first impressions are important then? Though since its online i would say that it is quite a bit easier to change how others think of a person and stuff~
