I had my DNA tested in 2018, I am an Apoe4 carrier. I was not prepared, but I managed to move forward with the knowledge that I received. It has been 6 years since i rec’d this news and I feel better than ever. I always took good care of myself, eating well, exercising etc., but now I do even more to keep healthy. I will be 70 years young this year and I am empowered because I have this information.
I so agree with your evaluation of this type of testing. Currently there are no really effective medications for dementia, and there is no cure. What would be the point of being given this type of diagnosis? When we do have more effective treatments for dementia, it would make more sense to get tested and begin a treatment program.
