Correct Answer: C

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Patients with sickle cell disease report to the health care provider because of symptoms related to vaso-occlusive crises. These include tingling fingers and toes, cyanosis, shortness of breath, and joint pain. Patients with sickle cell trait are often
