                        My girlfriend has had sickle cell all   her life and has now been without   medicine for 1 year now.  She does not   have the money to pay for morphine and   that is the reason she hasn't taken it.  The pain is so strong that she passes   out periodically and it's happening   more often now.  she complains of   extreme pain in her back and legs most   of the time.  She also probably has  a large amount of blood clots in her  body.  What can she do to help for the   pain?  And what can she do to help with  the blood clots?  If you have any   information on extreme cases of sickle   cell anemia or any advice with this   situation please inform me.  thank you.
