If you’ve been diagnosed with hereditary ATTR-CM, your loved ones may also be at risk
It is important for patients with hereditary ATTR-CM to encourage their family members to get genetic testing and counseling. This can be important for not only you as the patient but also close relatives, like siblings and adult children. Not all individuals with the V122I mutation develop symptoms of hereditary ATTR-CM.
Genetic testing:
- will help confirm or rule out the hereditary form of ATTR-CM
- may help identify if family members are at risk, because the TTR mutation can be passed down
- is typically performed using blood or saliva samples
Genetic counseling may be available to help those diagnosed with hereditary ATTR-CM (and their families) to understand test results and potential next steps to take.
Genetic testing and counseling may be available to eligible patients and family members at no cost.
