Hi I just found out recently I had neuropathy

Ray - You got quick (or perhaps normal) DNA results back. I was told to expect my results back in 4-6 weeks. I am now at week 9 and getting antsy, wondering if it means 1) they found something and doing deeper dives 2) they didn’t find anything but doing deeper dives, or 3) they’re just backlogged. I remember the initial long list of blood labs they took at the beginning of all this, as I’m sure you do. My doctor back then said with each result “Trust me, it’s a good thing that came back negative!” Well, OK then, I’ll try to be positive about that. But I don’t think we’re completely weird for wishing we had a little hint of what it might be 🤔

Deb - Sounds like your testing is more in depth. I had one test done, CMT. Was told it would take about 2 - 3 weeks for the results to come back. I took 5 weeks. Nobody seems to be in a hurry, except us. No news is.....how's it go?

Hi, Debbie. I should have been clearer. My neurologist's office had to wait 4-6 weeks before receiving my DNA results, and another week or so before I could get in to talk with the doc. All the while, I was wondering, Am I a Neanderthal or not? After all that wondering, apparently, I'm not. –Ray
