Not diagnosed but, with hindsight, suspected in my father and his mother and sister.

I am unable to to take part in this one as am adopted and have no info on family history but will be really interested to see the results.

Not able to tick more than one...not all family possibilties are included anyway, I would have ticked: my father, 2 aunts, grandmother, daughter.

Where's the 'no' or 'don't know'? I think having these two options would give a better picture.

My Mother then 18months ago myself and my sister were diagnosed independently by different doctors. I have since taken my daughter to see my GP for a blood test which was also positive so definitely hereditary in the female side of the family.
