Navigating my information

I'm sorry I bought this. It's hard to concentrate on only the family because they push the medical part so hard. Constant notifications to take another quiz, read or share another health report or purchase something else regarding health. I've also found it difficult to set up the family tree and change their suggestions because they're incorrect.

You basically have to pay for anything over the most basic minimal data.

I expected a bit more

I chose 23andMe because I would think more people trusted this company and there would be a greater chance that I could connect with possible family members. I didn't realize that most of the interesting or more detailed information came from surveys of other people with similar genetics. It's not as if they deeply researched my genetics and could tell me about personal interesting things about myself. I did find out I have a first cousin I have never met which is interesting. However, there's no way for me to ensure I get in contact with her. And I only have her initials to go by which is pretty disappointing.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The 12andMe+ Premium offered me insignificant benefits and insights into my genetics and other factors.

Still better than doing it through GP

My GP was uncomfortable interpreting genetic results and most things aren't covered by my insurance anyway. This is much easier than the way my husband did it even with insurance. Easier and cheaper and comprehensive. My biggest fear was disconfirmed and other things were found that I will discuss with my GP. I'm on the fence as to whether to tell her I had everything tested through 23andMe or just selectively report symptoms. Most of it could be predicted from my family medical history and/or appearance and behavior. However, I'm surprised how often these genetic predispositions pop into my mind. I really like knowing that some of these things traits have a genetic basis whether I see them in myself or not. By the way I want to repeat a quote from the veterinary behaviorist Ian Dunbar. Pet owner: My dog does XXX. Ian: train the dog. Pet owner: but what if it's genetic? Ian Dunbar: train harder! I'm aware of all the issues but decided it was worth it. Although I'm old so the legal protection doesn't matter and my daughter is young so the information will probably be out there by then including my husband's.

I bought this under 3 months ago and it's the best investment I've made this year.
