What Do You Suggest For Alzheimer S Gene?
Dr. Power...I was a patient of yours a few years ago. I am now wondering if you are testing for the Alzheimer gene. My family s history is being investigated by University of Toronto and they tell me that they are expecting the results soon (it has been close to 2 years), but I am interested in having the test as soon as possible.. Thank you Susan Butler (I was originally referred to you by Dr. Anne Fanning)

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it is not for sure to say that "Alzheimer" is gene related disease and even if it is then nothing can be done, second for the single patient it is not possible to find the particular gene responsible for this, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
