blue horizons discount

[ed2w]

Has anyone done the Blue Horizons thyroid DNA test, is it worth doing? Does anyone know of any discount codes or anything?

Thanks

Discount codes sometimes pop up when on BH's website.

The thyroid DNA test is currently discounted to £99 and all three DNA tests for £199

It's not, as I understand it, useable as a medical proof of DNA issues. On the Blue Horizon website it suggests it's for "educational purposes"

If you want to do DIO2 gene test to present as argument for being prescribed T3 to your endocrinologist you probably need to do Regenerus one. An official DNA test has to include counselling if it's a recognised medical DNA test

Hi, why does a DNA test need counselling to make the result more believable?

[SlowDragon Administrator in reply to clubby29]

It's a requirement in UK, as I understand it, to have counselling with any medically recognised genetic testing. In part so you can understand the implications for yourself and any direct relatives

The Regenerus counselling was very interesting and informative.

I did it, but I'm not sure it was worth it. Not at all the results I was expecting. Interesting, but not very useful.
