I honestly can't tell you for sure but it seems like a lot of people go straight for the blood test. I am sure with the numerous visits they have drawn blood, but have they tested it for huntingtons? If it were myself I would make an appointment and get specific testing done.

I agree. You need to have a thorough medical exam with a neurologist.
