A member asked:
If you were to take a blood test and tested positive, do you automatically get your treatment when getting the results?

Do not assume: If you test positive for a disorder, you need to discuss the matter with your doctor. Healthcare depends on many factors and you should not assume automatic treatment. Please discuss all issues with your doctor.
