I belong to Kaiser which is a pretty big network. My OB/GYN didn't refer me. My medical records are what caused the red flag. I guess what triggered the whole investigation is the fact that I've had a few miscarriages. The letter says "Women that have had miscarriages are at an increased risk for being balanced translocation carriers." (Whatever in the heck that is.) So, they had me fill out some surveys and do some blood work a month or so ago. I didn't think much of it, they said it was just some screening to be safe. Then, a week or two ago, the geneticist called me with additional questions which wound up being a pretty extensive interview. Now, they're calling me in for this additional testing.
