why don't you just ask her - after all if she has the condition, she will know about it

My knowledge of genetics is sketchy at best but the NL1 gene is present in many, mainly neurological disorders like autism and neurofibromatosis (lumps in the skin attached to nerves). A blood test is required to identify this abnormal gene, but a scan of the foetus may show the presence of heurofibromas.

That´s my lot...sorry.
