    IF you may have a rare genetic-condition, & want some leverage in getting the medical-industry to take you seriously,

    THEN please consider whether getting 1000x-oversampling genetic-testing ( which is the level that will nail those items with reasonable-certainty ) done.

    100x isn’t good-enough, from what I’ve read.

        Sorry, I’m not too helpful here:

        I’d paid-for 100x oversampling testing, & discovered a few interesting things,

        but not much I cared about…

        There’s a vitamin-D affecting gene, that makes one only need a small amount of the stuff, because somehow one’s body over-conserves it.

        I’d never known about any such condition…

        So, for me, a plain multivitamin will always be sufficient, for vitamin-D.


        The service I went-with wasn’t recommended by others who knew the companies better than I did.

        & I don’t remember the one they did recommend.

        Not the 23andMe shit, but the next level up…

        Maybe ask several LLM’s to find some, & compare/contrast their results, in order to get current view?

        Sorry I couldn’t help better…
