*Please read* genetic disease in Munns
Hi to all Munns!
I have a webpage that I would like you to read about a genetic condition being found in the Munn lines, called hereditary hemochromatosis. The url ishttp://www.zoomnet.net/~munsters/
This is a genetic condition of iron overload, which is fatal if not diagnosed & treated appropriately. However, if diagnosed early & treated correctly, you can lead a normal life.My family's story can be found on my webpage, as well as the proper tests to run & the symptoms to be aware of.It has been found in our Munn branches, in those who have been genetically tested,as far out as 4th cousins. There is a genetic test that you can have done in your home for this without a dr. order, or you can have your dr. run the appropriate labs on you.PLEASE realize how important this is & get your family tested.Excess iron will kill you if left untreated!Even our 9 yr. old son is in treatment.If anyone has any questions, please feel free to email me.
