nervous....I have no clue what to expect. I don't think I am even going to get any answers tomorrow. They said it is a talking session. I could use some hugs....Im home throwing a pity party.
They will ask you a lot of questions about your family history, and your DH's family history. Asking if anyone has any medical problems.
When I went, they basically made a 'family tree' to see to see if they could trace the issue. Then they gave me information about the problem. Honestly, I already knew the information they gave me, just by researching on my own.
It is a meeting where you will be informed of all your options for genetic testing. The counselor will go over in detail all your options and the accuracy of each test. They will also take a brief family history to determine other risk factors. No testing is done and you don't really get any answers/results.
I went in expecting more answers, but that wasn't the case. All I got was my options on what to do next. Hopefully your meeting helps you - good luck
