CIRS, or Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome, is an illness usually caused by your genes. But there are two different genetic based tests you can get! One to determine your Genetic HLA Haplotype, and one to see what genes are up or down regulated. Both inform your treatment to varying degrees, so today we want to help you understand which does what and whether these tests make sense for you.
