Factor V Leiden
by debbie55boogie, Nov 16, 2008 07:02PM
I have tested positive for heterozygous for factor V Leiden.
My mother did not have it.....my father died before we were able to test him.
My Older brother has it, I do, Next brother doesn't, next sister does, next sister doesn't.
My older brother's daughter has it, 1 doesn't and we are waiting on the result of 2 more of his children.
The sister who has it.......one daughter has it and her son has it. waiting on the results of 3 more children.
The sister who doesn't...one child doesn't have it and waiting on testing of 3 others.
My question is...........we have all been diagnosed heterozygous................can someone be homozygous? with the 2 genes....with us all being siblings and coming from the same parents?
