Question 1

the clients blood typing reveals rh antigens what blood type would the client have rh receptive, rh negative , rh resistant, rh positive

Accepted Answer

Rh : Rh antigens are present in every blood. You would need to be more specific. Also, they blood type (a, b, ab, 0) is not connected/related to the rh + or rh - types; they are inherited independently.

Question 2

is it bad to switch to vegeterian? what are the positives and negatives? im blood type o

Accepted Answer

Unlikely to be bad: Research suggests that vegetarian diets are generally healthier than meat-based diets, but there is no single diet that is appropriate for everyone. Many people thrive on a vegetarian diet but some people do feel better when they eat at least some meat. The best way to see how it affects you is to try it. Some nutritionists feel type o's do better with a meat-based diet but this remains unproven.

Question 3

what happens if someone has a minimal agglutination against positive blood type and no agglutination against negative blood?

Accepted Answer

Unclear question: You may wish to restate the question or call your local blood bank for a conversation on the topic.

Question 4

if i am a negative blood type, can i receive o positive?

Accepted Answer

Not a suitable issue: For self treatment. You are not likely to pick out the blood for your own transfusion. Blood banks do not give incompatible blood. O negative people are given o negative blood except in rare emergencies and even then only to males or post-menopausal women.

Question 5

what will happen to someone with rh negative blood type if he/she receives rh positive blood?

Accepted Answer

May get sick: If the person has antibodies against the Rh antigen, they are likely to break down the blood fast and this may make them ill and a bit jaundiced.

Question 6

is everyone either duffy positive or duffy negative, or both blood type?  does everyone either have the duffy antigen or does not have the duffy antigen in their blood type?  is the duffy antigen blood type a rare blood type that only some have?

Accepted Answer

Dy and b: A person be positive of both Duffy a and b or for one or none.

Question 7

my dad has ab positive and my mom has a negative blood type. what would i have?

Accepted Answer

Either: Not enough information, since the rh-factor can either be transmitted or not, so could be either. Equally challenging to see if you are a, b, or ab blood type, depending on mom's blood type. Can donate blood and they'll send you a donor card with your blood type & rh factor (and you will save 3 people's lives!).

Question 8

can a child have a negative blood type if both of her parents are o positve?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Each parent has two rh genes. It only takes one positive gene to make a person rh positive, so each parent can have a positive and a negative rh gene. Both genes have to be rh negative for someone to be rh negative. Since each parent only contributes one gene to child, the child can get a negative gene from each parent and therefore be rh negative.

Question 9

my blood type is o (positive) , does that mean i can only recieve o ( positive or negative) in case of an emergency?

Accepted Answer

O Positive: O + blood type means you have the rh antibody. If you receive o negative blood, which has no rh antibody, you are ok. If you receive o+ blood, you're ok. But if you donate blood, there may be a problem to the recipient, if they have negative blood type.  Any transfusion is preceded by a cross match wherein the two bloods are checked for compatibility to lessen the risk of transfusion react.

Question 10

good evening if a person is blood type o and hiv positive does this mean their blood results will came back negative because of their blood type?

Accepted Answer

No: The blood type is determined by some "markers" on the red blood cells. The HIV test looks for the virus or for antibodies created for your body to fight the virus .
There are different kinds of test for HIV, some of them having more accuracy than others
