Poll for people who have done a GeneSight test

Did a GeneSight test and it explained my horrific reaction to so many meds and why I just need to ctb asap. Wondering if others had similar results?

I heard it wasn't reliable at all. I'm not wasting more money on bs.

It was free with my low income insurance so I figured no harm in trying.

I know that all of the meds I've had significant side effects with were listed in the red category so it was validating to have confirmation that my bad experiences weren't just "in my head."

I mean the 110 pound weight gain, spontaneous lactation, polycythemia, high cholesterol, high blood sugar, high BP, elevated liver enzymes, wonky kidney levels and other tangible physical side effects were obvious but some were subjective... I felt like often providers were treating me like I was dramatic, like I was a hypochondriac, and like I was a drug seeker so I feel like the results were kind of comforting.

Also confirmation that I've given life and medications a solid shot and that I really just need to ctb.
