Genetic testing
 
Does anyone know of the availability of genetic testing for individuals who are interested if they have one of the markers thought to be contributors for PD? Could be interesting to those who have PD-in their family or just to follow someone who has the marker but may not be diagnosed yet. I myself have the genetic marking for billionaire but as of yet I'm not symptomatic,lol.:D
