Genetic testing for FH

Well thank you all for your advice. The appointment was as you said. A very nice consultant explained everything and gave me the British Heart Foundation book on FH. A visual examination and blood test. My extensive list of family and any related conditions was useful. Results in a couple of months.

This is a BHF funded clinic so worth checking locally if its available to you .
