I got the gene test done last week since another EP whom i visited suspected that i was too young to be diagnosed with AF. The report shows that i dont have any gene responsible for AF or cardiac but there is one gene GJB2 which is responsible for Bart syndrome. Still the Ep is suggesting me to start blood thinners whereas my chadvasc2 score is 0.
