Thalassemias are a group inherited blood disorders. Depending on type and severity they can cause still births, death in infancy, serious or moderately serious illness, mild or no symptoms or the silent carrier state. Please see the following information provided by the Cooley's Anemia Foundation on these disorders: http://www.cooleysanemia.org/sections.php?sec=1&cooleys_sess=8c4dc575995e851ca574f643d7e64627 Jose should be able to shed more light on these conditions.
