A genetic counselor has expertise in genetics, genetic testing, and genetic conditions, and can be a great resource for chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) patients, families, and those preparing for a dihydrorhodamine (DHR) or genetic test. Counseling sessions may include:

Education about how CGD might affect different family members, including signs, symptoms, and causes

Discussion of genetic testing options and/or explanation of test results

Genetic counseling and family history

Since CGD is genetic, one diagnosis in a family probably means there are more. A genetic counselor can help guide a person with CGD through conversations with their family about how CGD may affect them.

We help families understand the genetic process—
the testing, what it involves, possible results, and next steps—
so that each of our families can make the decisions that are right for them.
