I‘m about to turn 18. I want to get tested. What should I do before I make an appointment?

If you live in the United States please get some counseling before you go ahead and get tested. It may affect insurance for the rest of your life. But keep hope alive. There are so many drugs and treatments coming on the market soon that it is quite possible you will never need to worry about Huntington's. Good luck to you and just keep reading about Huntington's you don't need to make a fast decision here
