Beside that these article give me more information about type of thalassaemia. There are two types of thalassaemia disease, alpha thalassaemia and beta thalassaemia and there are three subtypes thalassaemia under these two main types. Moreover, I have learned how the thalassaemia disease affected the patients.
Moreover, by reading these article I have to know how we can detect this disease. For those who want to step into marriage, they were advised to conduct a testing to avoid undesirable to the born child. In addition, in England all pregnant women and newborn babies are offered a thalassaemia test. In my opinion, this is a good effort as it will reduce the diseased society. In Malaysia also we can conduct the test in the government health clinics that offer thalassaemia screening.
How to treat the thalassaemia disease also one of the point in the article that I have gained. The patient can take certain vitamins and supplement ti boost their immunity and strength. Red blood cell transfusion also one of the way to treating thalassaemia. Although this way can stabilize the haemoglobin in the body, there is an effect that can cause the patient has high toxic levels in body. Moreover, this can caused the patient to have the organ failure and early death.
Besides that, this article also teach me that for those who have this disease, they also can lead normal lives, marry and have the children. Having thalassaemia is no reason for decreasing your quality life. Although they can live as a normal family, but they must follow several steps that have been recommended by doctors to remain in a healthy way of life.
As a conclusion these article give me or anyone who read the article the knowledge about this thalassaemia disease. Moreover, by reading these article I can correct back my perceptions about thalassaemia patients.
