Today we are deep diving into potential benefits of getting tested for Huntington's Disease. This question was left as a comment on our social media post today and it gave me the idea to come on here and talk about what benefits I have found about testing myself. This is personal, please do make sure to seek help from a professional as well. Your genetic counselor and therapist are key resources to lean on before you go through the test results.
Thank you to the woman who left the comment on our post. You inspired this episode! I hope you find this helpful.
