> Dear Mailbase readers,
> 
> We have been given a sample for Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) genetic testing (mutations in MEFV gene). The only lab I can find offering this test is in Germany but I am having trouble contacting them. If anyone knows of an alternative lab which offers this test I would be very grateful.
