    I’ve already been told that I was expected to die and gather the family (that would have me) around. Now, 50 years later, the Doctors are all dead and I am typing this! 😂🎉

    These genetic predispositions are often just worst case scenarios if you don't take care of yourself. My 94 year old aunt did a DNA test. We figured she had the golden genome because she looks awesome (barely any wrinkles) and is doing so well. Nope. She has a terrible genome. She's predisposed to pretty much everything and should've died fairly early in life. However, she lived a very healthy life.

      You are right, none of us have totally “clean” genes. I believe that is is not only the bad genes we carry, it may also have to do more with the gene mutations we have.

    I had a DNA test done about 6 months ago to see what would help with my inflammation response because of my lupus. It went so in depth that it took me about 6 hours to get through the information. It drilled down so specifically and gave recommendations as to both lifestyle changes and supplements that would help (btw they have). Learned so much from that test. It made everything make sense. When my husband saw how much information I got from mine he had his done. His biggest concern was dementia as his mother passed from it. He did not carry the gene (thank goodness). It is absolutely worth the money. Wish we would have done it earlier.
    Even if you get the testing done and it says you don't have the breast cancer gene, still continue to get your nanograms. My daughter passed away from triple negative breast cancer, when doing her DNA testing to see if she was a candidate for gene therapy she was told it was a type of cancer that isn't genetic.

    My Dad had a heart attack at just 34. He had just got home from a 6 week rugby tour in Canada and was the fittest person I knew. Luckily he was in a 'private' hospital having shoulder surgery at the time. He spent 3 months in hospital. Unfortunately the hospital was in London, 7 hours drive from where we live in Wales (uk).
    My fear was it would happen to me! I'm 45 now, but during my 30's having given birth to my youngest children was I feared that I wouldn't be around to see them grow up.
    But now I would like to know if my children and grandchildren have inherited my conditions.
    I lost my sight in my left eye from glaucoma at 36.
    My body is breaking down due to EDS, POTS, OA and RA.
    I need knee, hip replacements on both sides. I have already had one shoulder replacement and need another for the other side.
    I also have a brain tumour (I am receiving chemotherapy atm) and a cerebral aneurysm. I would also like to know if I might have a gene making me predisposed for all these conditions and if they are all linked.

    If none of you have seen it, go watch 'Gattaca'. Its a movie about a future where at birth, doctors can diagnose how you will die, if you will be fat, bald, short, strong, weak, allergic, you name it. Any faults you may have are told to your parents right on the spot and watch how quick the parents in that film lose interest in their first born son who is said will die young of heart disease so they genetically opt to have another child who is "manufactured" during gestation to be "perfect". Its a movie worth watching about not letting the odds dictate you life and dreams of the future you want.

      Or, would knowing open a pandora's box of stress and hypochondria\paranoia that leads to more disease? Epigenetics says you can turn parts of your DNA blueprint on and off depending on the proteins and enzymes that surround the cells... Environmentally including built architecture and the oxidative properties and materials with their other 'quirks' that are still being discovered, it is impossible to determine the outcome. Taking a test like this, if available prior to the asbestos situation (as one example out of tens of thousands) would have been futile, alongside the myriad of newer contentious materials and chemicals being developed and that have been developed since asbestos that are yet to reveal their multi-generational cause and effects.
      Also, miracles DO happen. Plenty of people can attest to this with personal experience, including myself.

    The main issue here is epigenetics. Certain genes will get turned on or off depending upon environmental conditions, stressors, and exposures. So you cannot say that having a gene for something means you will necessarily get the condition for many issues, and you also cannot say that not having a gene will stop it from happening if environmental factors then subsequently alter things. Parents genes in their eggs and sperm will actually alter depending upon their life experiences and trauma experienced. Same goes with a fetuses genes being altered depending upon what stressors or good things mom is experiencing during pregnancy. Look into the studies on epigenetics and trauma and studies done on mice with epigenetics.

    I like the idea of this test, because you can tell your doctor what to screen for that isn't standard. The worry is that if you don't have national medical coverage, you could be denied health insurance because of "pre-existing conditions." I'm so grateful I live in a country where I don't have to worry about that, and that doctors appreciate having as much extra info as they can get. I can't wait until they offer these tests as part of a standard diagnostic, because right now you still need to pay quite a bit for them, and not everyone can afford it. When gene therapy becomes more mainstream and affordable, it's really going to revolutionize the world.

Turns out I never smoked a single cigarette and have always been physically active with a 22 BMI.

But take it from someone who not only is actively dying, but also knows what it feels like to face this…. Don’t do this to yourself. We all have to die. Enjoy whatever you can for as long as you can.

      I agree. My dad has heart disease, and after his diagnosis, he tried convincing me its genetic and I'm probably going to have heart disease and be miserable like him. I wasn't mad to hear that, but I was disappointed that my dad was so hell bent on convincing me I was genetically flawed and was going to die young. Has it influenced my decisions in life? Maybe. Has it changed the fact that I live with tons of overbearing stress and poor lifestyle choices such as smoking that I picked up at 11 because my parents made it normal and available in their home? My dad's heart attacks were "stress related". I attribute his poor health to his poor choices in life, just as I would say the same for myself if I should realize the same fate.

      Absolutely. The only country in the world that is supposed to be advanced, plus other countries still consider it taboo and that of the devil

    Question is will life insurance companies eventually put a clause in to see the results then charge you more if you are at risk for certain illnesses ? Or might they require eventually that you take one of these tests before you get your life insurance?

      Of course it is likely.
      If there was real interest in health the mass murders of wars, research and development of weapons, systemized situations and circumstances that maintain strains and stressors that maintain and sustain oppression of common folks would be nonexistent.

    Can I get this done in the USA???
    I realise this is almost 15 years old but with that the technology has gotten extensively better, and highly likely it is also able to test for a wider range of things versus the smaller list then they had back then…
    I’d like to get DNA genetic testing, me having multiple autoimmune conditions that are at the biological level if it’s truly true or it’s something else. Also if it’s on a side of family that should be concerned as well as providing me with the proper information to me for deciding if I should have kids based on what I could pass on and not especially of things I may not know exist in my body

      There is a great chance they will tell you your DNA is broken and you should never have kids because that would be cruel, so you should get a brand new designer baby. Don't buy into this crap. God will tell you when it is your time to go.

      50 years we lived good lives. When we passed, we passed... wherever we passed to, only the dead know. Death has become such an obsession. Live while life is relevant, die when death is relevant.
      These tests have been known to be faulty. My aunt got back wrong information about her bloodline. 50 years ago we didn't worry about this crap. You are offering your physical make up to strangers and with all the toxins in the food and air, viruses from labs, weather changes...probably not going to live as long as some of our ancestors.

      It’s $300 or $400 for the test. This is not expensive enough for the American health industry.
