Guest guest Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 How do you approach genetic testing with your doctors? Zoie had genetic testing done in 2002 before she was born to rule out Down Syndrome. But I am not sure if they looked for anything else and science has come so far in the past nine years in this area. I am concerned that we are missing the bigger picture here with her autism diagnosis. For those of you who've done it is it expensive? Does your insurance cover any or part of it? THANKS!
