Blood Disease

Sickle cell disease – A genetic disease that is resulted from a single amino acid mutation in the hemoglobin molecule

Hemophilia – A genetic disease that causes the blood not to be able to form a firm clot.

Leukemia – Often referred to as cancer of the blood, a malignant condition affecting the immature blood-forming cells in the bone marrow.

Anemia – a commonly encountered clinical condition that is caused by an acquired or hereditary abnormality of red blood cells (RBC) or its precursors, or may be a manifestation of an nonhematologic disorder.

Thrombosis – Happens when the platelets try to patch up an injury within a small blood vessel and completely plug it up instead. This plug obstructs the normal flow of blood and can result in a heart attack or stroke.

Blood cholesterol – plays an important part in deciding a person’s chance or risk of getting coronary heart disease (CHD).
