My brother was just diagnosed with Hemochromotosis. He requested several tests by name during his last physical. He kind of freaked the doctor out when he tested positive for the above. The doctor and the family are still scratching their heads trying to figure out why he requested this particular one.
Everyone in the blood line apparently needs to be checked now, at every physical.
Anyone have any direct experience with this?

The first one is more likely to be helpful, I think. Let me know if I can interpret anything for you. Let us know what you find out, too. (Maybe it would be good to make an appointment with your doctor when you go in to get the test?)
