As for the HD, Sam, there are so many wonderful places on the web that can give you information and give you support. The web site will also have links to local HDSA chapters as well as information about testing centers. You will get much help and support there. Also check out the HDLighthouse, on-line. You said you were a university student.
Many large Universities have medical and genetic departments.
If yours does you should be able to gather information there. With HD there are many, many aspects to deal with. Learn a little at a time or it can overwhelm you, Sam. I really encourage you to start with the basics, in print information. I know that I speak for a lot of others who are reading your post when I say we are glad you wrote and are glad you reached out.
