I am actually the only person in my family to be diagnosed! My family is from a very poor area of the country and I am the first one to have a SCA. It was treated very atypically and the tests performed at the time were tox screens and STD panels - I had to ask for a genetic test years later when I began to learn more. I did not have the standard cardiac workup and have had to advocate for myself to have such because I had my cardiac arrest blamed on my gender identity/sexual orientation - part of why I want to move as well haha

Do look at your family history for clues. Without formal documentation, there may be anecdotal evidence that other family members did, in fact have SCA.
