Hi all.

I think it's known as "GSTP1" polymorphisms Or "GSS gene deficiency", not sure which or both.

I'm sure several folks have had this done via their LLMDs. Could you please give me the exact name or code for this test and where you got it done (ie Labcorp or "specialty" diagnostics/genetic lab)?

Thanks!

My doctor ordered the Detoxigenomic test panel from Genova Diagnostics. The test panel included the test you are looking for. See the following for more info:
