[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he is black, this would have been discussed at some point with your health care team. If he isn't black, but is from a middle east, mediterranean, south asian background, then he likely had family with the disease to have been tested himself. [/quote] OP here - He has African ancestry (15% according to his 23andMe). The remaining percentage is European. His parents found out that he has the gene after routine newborn screening in the hospital when he was born.[/quote] One person with the trait doesn't matter. Do you have it OP? If not, keep it moving. We are Black and my Mom and Sister have the trait. No one else.[/quote]
