What Is A Haemoglobin Condition?
Haemoglobin Conditions include:
- Beta thalassaemia
- Sickle cell Anaemia
- Alpha thalassaemia
- Haemoglobin E disease
Inside your red blood cells is something called haemoglobin, which carries oxygen around your body! A person with a haemoglobin condition does not make enough functioning haemoglobin.
This means that not enough oxygen is being spread around your body.
All haemoglobin conditions cause some level of anaemia, which can make you feel tired and drained.
Thalassaemia and Sickle Cell Australia (TASCA) is a support and advocacy organisation for Australians living with genetic haemoglobin conditions.
