Genetic Testing
Genetic Testing
My wife and I had genetic testing done with the popular 23 and Me group. It was very interesting for us to do and had what I thought was some useful information. Nothing shocking. The testing, when we got it last year, was $300, but is now $100. One of the genetic risk factors I had was for--you guessed 'er, Chester-- WED, which they still denominate RLS.

Re: Genetic Testing
Huh - I wonder which gene sequence they look for (there are at least five associated with it).
If I had a spare $100 US, I think I'd do this....
