Genetic Screening for NF? |
My boyfriend's brother has NF. Is there a genetic test that they can do to see if my boyfriend carries that gene? If we get married, I'd like to know what the chances are that our offspring could have NF. There are blood tests that can be done. My dad and I have NF so my mom and brother had a blood test done to see if they had it. |
