@dxd2000 Wow! I have never heard of this gene testing to see how one metablolizes a medicine! Why aren't our docs doing this as an early part of prescribing a cancer drug like Tamoxifen? Probably has to do with something like the FDA hasn't approved it. Every cancer drug I've tried ends up being too strong with debilitating side effects.
It also tells you about other meds you may be on like some Blood pressure meds, pain relievers, depression drugs, etc.
Thanks for sharing this.....I'm going to ask my Doc if I can get this easy genetic test.
