Thumbs Up Blood test back levels ok

I got a call from the doctor that all the iron levels and liver function are fine which would be symptoms for the hemochromatosis. There was no genetic testing though to see if I am a carrier.

The sibling with the diagnosed with full blown is alcohol dependant for years and years. I read where that is a contributing factor. If I had full blown gene from both parents I suppose it would have come out in symptoms and test by now though.

One less worry now.
