Sounds a bit like my thalassemia seen in countries who have had to fight malaria. My blood tests are wacky. Always come with a path review to make sure automated machine didn’t make a mistake.

I have the minor version. The major version ends up with a life of blood transfusions

For those here who do have thalassemia minor there is some research that it may make you more susceptible to certain diseases like diabetes and rheumatology issues. There is not a consensus why. Some think it is the location of the gene.

So when a doctor tells you that Minor is no big deal you might want to take it with a grain of salt. I have many different kinds of misshapen cells.

Along the same line of malaria country diseases Black people need to watch out for g6pd issues...especially if you are taking certain rheum. drugs

But can you imagine an entire hospital floor with everyone suffering from the same disorder and pathology profile of the same onset of time and age, with no symptoms prior to Covid vaccines?
