Voter Comments (the following are opinions of readers and not AskaPatient.com)

• DNA test is the hook; expensive to get more info.

• Discovering negative info about my health is actually the point for me, and a huge Plus!

• mishandling

• the amount of fraud surrounding our country these days have almost made me immune to it, so accuracy

• trust no-one.

• If you're not going to share it, why store leftovers?
