[QUOTE="Troubled1, post: 1670120, member: 406460"] I agree with There being a genetic link to type2 diabetes but I would never ever do a DNA test. Having that information in my medical file could be a boon for future insurance underwriters. Imagine applying for life insurance after having DNA testing done and then finding out you are also predisposed to other diseases yet they aren’t prevalent in family history or a new type of disease is discovered and a correlation had been made but not proven? The insurance underwriter would be able to raise premiums to astronomical rates. My type2 has made it far too expensive to have any decent life insurance coverage although I’m not on any meds and my numbers for the most part have been anywhere from the at risk level to barely into the type2 range.
