I am not suffering from hemochromatosis, and if caught early enough people who do have hemochromatosis don't have to suffer. The people who suffer are those who don't get a proper diagnosis. Hemochromatosis is misdiagnosed 90% of the time. It is the most common hereditary disorder in north america and northern europe. Especially in Ireland. 1 in 3 people carry the gene, which causes you to absorb more iron than most, and 1 in 9 has the full-blown disorder.

I still think you should get test, actually I thing everyone should, just to be on the safe side.

It causes fatigue, joint pain, depression/anxiety, medication resistant bi-polar, heart problems, diabetes, thyroid, certain cancers,etc, etc,. But if you catch it early enough you can save yourself a world of grief.
