Question
I am concerned about my blood type,it is AB negative,I was wondering if you had any information about it?
Thank you,
Hi Roena: Thanks for your question. I'm not sure what you're asking here. Your blood type does not give you any disease or symptoms. It's like eye color, you just have it.
If you will write back about your concerns more specifically, I'll try to answer them.
Meanwhile, here's some information:

Hope this helps. Write back if you have more questions.
