> Jon- what exactly do you mean by having one "done"? Like by a professional? How would you go about it? My pdoc is just convinced that there's something, somewhere in my history (I'm bipolar) and that it was just undiagnosed/hidden...What I don't understand is why I can't be the one to have started it? Someone has to screw up the gene pool right?

On the bright side...
There would only be a certain odd that your child
would activate the gene and by that time (many years from
now), hopefully medical science will have come out with many
more treatments to ease any pain.Regards,
