hello - I was wondering whether there is anyone else out there who has this condition and has children with it - my son has inherited it from me,is 4 years old and takes 5mls folic acid a day.
I had my spleen removed at the age of 6 (my brother had his out 'as a precaution' at age 13) and my mother when she was 18. Both my mum and I were very ill before the operation,but perefectly fine afterwards.
