Not alot known bout rh neg i had a severe family crisis 20 years ago,although i was eating ,and family feeding me i continued to loose weight at a critical level,just no matter how much i ate,it continued to drop.recently it happened again,i have to wonder, does the bodysense the crisis,tension in our body the same as it would a rh pos baby and go into attack mode
Hi, stress levels release fight or flight hormones in your brain which tend to decrease appetite, clench the bowles and generally slow down the entire digestion system to put energy elsewhere for the perceived emergency.
This has happened to me on and off over the years. The mind can trigger things within the body when it comes to stress. Maybe especially for us which may be why we tend to have high acidic issues in our stomachs as well, ibs etc
I have real concerns about sending my information off to a analysis site as I don’t want to be on some watch list somewhere – I normally don’t subscribe to conspiracy theories however. I can say that my daughter was born in 1987 and based on her alpha fetal proteins an amniocentesis was done. Now remember this was pretty cutting edge technology for the time. I was absolutely shock to find her most dominant blood line was American Indian. Which now brings me to the A- factor in my blood and remembering an old story from my grandmother that her great great grandmother was of the Blackfoot tribe. Any connection?
A+ is the predominant blood type among Blackfoot and original ones could have easily been 100% type A+. As for the A, it could have come from this part of your ancestry. As for the rh negative blood factor, it must have come from other parts of your ancestry.
Hello Mike
I would like to assist in some clarification regarding the RH Neg HIV/AIDS debate.
This is an area I researched thoroughly a few years back. The one factor all of these people are missing out is the necessity of the human leukocyte antigen B27+. To date it is known Rh negs can get HIV, however there are no known cases of progression to AIDS.
Somewhere online is an exensive medical university study which clearly declares that if a person is Rh negative and has HLA B27+ they have immunity from AIDS, and HIV sufferers had been given blood transfusions with O neg HLA B27 blood to help prevent onset from HIV to AIDS.
Ultimately HLA B27+ is the factor that people need to understand. It would be a huge shame if RH Negs are engaging in unsafe sexual activity due to ignorance.

Hello, I would like to ask how a rhesusnegativ blood became inhereted. Must one of the parents have also a rhesusnegative factor or is it possible that a man and a woman each with positive rhesus factor can get a child with Rhesus negative blood? Thanks in advance for answering.
Unfortunately where I live, they only post RH + or RH – in the blood test results. How to know if it is ++ or +-?
Is there any known connection with Rh neg 0 and blood disorders/leukaemia
Leukemia no: https://www.rhesusnegative.net/staynegative/blood-type-frequencies-in-leukemia-patients/
I will look for information on others. Have you found anything specific that gotten your attention?
Leukemia is more frequent among people of Jewish origin, but other than that I haven’t been able to find anything indicating higher risks based on ABO or Rh factor.
“lots of children of RhD-negative women in the mostly RhD-positive population as well as children of RhD- positive men in the mostly RhD-positive population were dying of hemolytic anemia.”
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4619848/
“RhD negative men more often reported certain mental health disorders including panic disorders, antisocial personality disorders and attention deficits, ticks, fasciculation, thyroiditis, immunity disorders, allergies, especially skin allergies, excessive bleedings, anemia, osteoporosis, liver disease, infectious diseases and acute diarrhea diseases, while they less often reported gall bladder attacks, coeliac disease, maldigestion, malabsobtion, warts, some types of cancers and prostate hypertrophy.”
Anemia is high in Rh(D) negative men especially.
More about anemia: https://www.rhesusnegative.net/staynegative/anemia-connection-blood-types/
Hemophilia, lymphoma, and myeloma don’t seem to have studies showing significant connections, but I am going to look more into it.
This is just two questions in light of the coronavirus pandemic. I am curious if RH- people don’t exhibit fevers if they are ill. I rarely get above 96 degrees and at my age I get hot flashes and I have a hard time ascertaining if were exposed or not. I work in the service industries where I come in contact with a lot of people. Digital thermometers are useless on me.
Also wondering if AB- have rare diseases with no known origins like hemolytic uremia, or pseudotumor cerebri.
Had no idea so many Geminis are also RH- nice to know I’m in a unique club of sorts. Johnny Depp, Marilyn Monroe, and Clint Eastwood..nice.
P atients presenting A-Symptomatic. This is a problem. There contagious. The fever presenting later stages. Not all positive covid19 have a fever until it’s t o late.I’m assuming all are positive and practicing universal precautions. I’ve been told that two molecules have morphed. The new corona virus has different symptomatic characteristics. I read this on cdc. I did not invent word new. I obtained this word new corona virus from literature presented in newspaper.
Hello Mike.
I have 5 children 3 girls 2 boys.
My blood type is A+ I’m not sure of my husband or 2 sons but my eldest daughter is AB- 2nd daughter A- and 3rd daughter B-
Any thoughts about the possibility of this.
Thanks Sara
Same…..my normal temp is 96 and Gemini. Strange thing my cousin and I are born 10 years apart to the day. He was having his 10th bday party while I was born. And he and I are the only blue eyed gingers (started super blonde) in all our family as far back as we know
Hey, I just came to say that I don’t register fevers orally or on head in any way (forehead/temporal). I discovered that I only register fevers if taken axillary or rectally. So for years when I’d feel febrile I wasn’t registering it typically which is really awful for understanding severity of an illness or for doc visit I just looked like a big baby. I have a large head/forehead I wonder if I’m just dissipating heat more lol!
Hi, I’m O- but with regards to RH- people not getting the COVID-19
Prince Charles has COVID-19 and he’s O-
I was wishing we were immune.
she had hardly any mild symptoms …
that is…
According to simulated pandemic published Oct 2019 by Bill Gates, Event 201. The tests are faulty. Prince Charles may have received a false positive test. This article is so precise to unfolding facts of real pandemic is unnerving. Its my personal opinion that there making some lab errors.
I am A- and would like to register an account but am being redirected and unable to register.
There is far less than 15% RH negatives globally. It’s 4% max. Likely much lower.
Data being collected here: https://rhnegdata.blogspot.com/
I’m b neg , I’ve never had the flu. I am a dental hygienist in mass. Possibility going back to work in couple of weeks. I am worried as facemask in short supply. Have any stats been collected as to this blood type contracting covid19? I believe b neg is 1.7 percent of world population, so I’m just anxious that it’s to rare to ever know resistance stats.
Hi Robin !
B negative dental hygienist in Mississippi! 😊
In response to the German and Viking research, my father is german, and b negative. My maiden surname is publicover. This was originally puppicoffer. Which is Swiss german. My ancestors vikings, travelled to move scotia. I only know what I’ve been told. I hope this information is helpful.
Please help with the following: I have seven sisters and I’m the only male out of 8 children family.
I don’t know my father’s blood type because he died over thirty years ago. My mother’s blood type is O neg and all my sisters are O neg. I was born O pos in 1964 and was the six children out of 8 with 5 O neg sisters before me and 2 O neg sisters after me. My mother told me that besides the 8 children she had 2 miscarriages before I was born. I don’t understand why all my family is O neg and I’m O pos. Can anyone explain?
Ernest
Your mum has secrets.
I am rh neg and have 2 children, 1 is neg and 1 is pos, so it’s possible your father was rh pos.
I of course had to have Rohgam shots when I had my daughters, ever since I did I have developed allergies to grain dust and pollens. I also developed an autoimmune disease with my thyroid. Has anyone else developed something like this after receicving Rohgam?
Now that you mentioned that, I did not have hypothyroidism until after I had my first child. It came out of nowhere. I had the rhogam shot-A negative
I was born in the 1960s to an rh negative mother and I am rh positive. I was anemic but only mild and no other blood diseases. My mother was on Rho Gam and my brothers are all positive rh blood. My mother was told she has very few antigens, and might be nearly Null Rh blood. I know we are related to royal lines, but what if my mother, who is in her 80s and healthier than me, is Rh-Null(ish)?
Have you seen this fantastic Rh- video?
