If you have sickle cell anemia and already know it, then it wil lbe pretty easy to tel lwhen the symptoms show themselves. I don't have it myself but people with sickle cell apparently go through a lot of pain when a sickle cell gets stuck in a blood vessel and causes a clot; there isn't a cure, just doctors can give stuff to make the pain less but not totally go awayunless maybe they knock you unconscious. Also people with sickle cell have more trouble with sports and activites since sickle cells can't carry as much oxygen as normal ones. I'm sorry, but that's all the symptoms I know...
