Thanks for the reply Melbel!

Your reply has put me at ease on the diabetes front (7%).

To be honest, I'm not too concerned about the diabetes, my husband is. He was diagnosed at 30 years of age and says he had a fantastic and full existence before being diagnosed, but says he couldnt imagine going through it as a child.

His neice has was diagnosed with type 1 last year at the age of 11 and she isnt having the best time of it lately, which is why he is hesitant. He has even notioned that he 'couldnt live with himself' if he 'gave it' to his children.

With my sisters disorder, there is testing that can be done, but I'm just frustrated that we have to wait 6 months for it. I have tried in vain all morning to find a private practice who will do the testing, but have been told that major hospitals are the only places I can have it done at. Apparently Geneticists dont go into private practice due to to lack of demand.

With me having PCOS, I'd rather start trying now, rather than later...
