Does anyone know if any of the provincial health care systems cover gene testing? I'm particularily intersted in Ontario. Also if I have to go do enterolab or the like, does anyone know if its possible to ship that through the boarder?

hi, im canadian as well im in alberta though, i did testing through entrolab and had to suck up the cost, there province wont pay for it and neither would my benefit company. i had no problem shipping through the border just sent it UPS, and make sure that you mark on the package that it is NON contagious biological sample, UPS knows how to mark it. hope this helps

Yes thanks. I'm thinking I'm going to have to suck it up too. I'd really like to test my kids too but I fiugre I'll test myself and see what I have first.

      No, I meant two years ago when you had your most recent upper GI scope.

      Hello everyone, I am a young adult living with both Celiac disease and achalasia. I am looking for some inspiration to start raising awareness for people with Celiac disease on instagram. Please reach out to me if you have any tips and ideas on what is important to share to the world.
