This is a blood donation that helps reduce the overage amount of iron intake that your body can't handle. This form of treatment can also reduce the symptoms of hemochromatosis from beginning and if already began, getting rid of them. Another form of treatment is chelation therapy. This is medicine that helps break down the overload of iron sitting in your body. Some people who cant have phlebotomy, use this type of treatment.]]> 2018-04-05 03:39:33 UTC https://padlet.com/emmahallaz/g7ppx6k4vbaj/wish/248733611 emmahallaz https://padlet.com/emmahallaz/g7ppx6k4vbaj/wish/248734553 In order to get hemochromatosis, both parents must be carriers of the mutated gene. The gene that has to be mutated in order to get the disease is the HFE gene. This is also known as an autosomal recessive pattern.  ]]> 2018-04-05 03:48:48 UTC https://padlet.com/emmahallaz/g7ppx6k4vbaj/wish/248734553 emmahallaz https://padlet.com/emmahallaz/g7ppx6k4vbaj/wish/248734831 This is the cycle of a normal liver vs. a liver with hemochromatosis]]> 2018-04-05 03:51:29 UTC https://padlet.com/emmahallaz/g7ppx6k4vbaj/wish/248734831 emmahallaz https://padlet.com/emmahallaz/g7ppx6k4vbaj/wish/248735626 There are a few different types of hemochromatosis.
