THE CON'S OF GETTING YOUR GENOME SEQUENCED

If you are wondering whether or not you SHOULD or SHOULD NOT get your genome sequenced, you are not the only one! Many people contemplate the pro's and con's. Some examples of why they would not want to get their genome sequenced are: the stress of knowing, the possibility of inaccurate results, and interpretation could be wrong.

Some of us would constantly worry if we had our DNA sequenced. What if you had the allele that increased your risk for heart attack? Would you automatically go on medication? Would you change your diet?

Also, the sequence is so complex that researchers are still figuring out how to interpret it exactly. What if you had your DNA sequenced and your health care provider interpreted the results incorrectly? It would be very difficult for you to try and read/interpret the results so you would have to just rely on what your health care provider said, right?
