Thank you very much.
It's short for Degenerative Myelopathy.

I have ordered my DM tests from www.offa.org - USD$65 - soon I will have results for Anthea and Wasabogoa, and after for Hronec and Jovice - I have my fingers crossed! Really glad to see people are testing! It's really nice to see people from Europe are also using this organization - normal results are automatically posted, and owners have the choice of submitting abnormal results (it's not required).

Congratulations Sarka! And thank you!

Marcy

Did you used a FTA card or you sent a blood sample?
This price is much more acessible for me, and with the FTA card everything gets more easy for long trips.

Hey Paula!

I have only just ordered the tests (they will come by mail). They are FTA - using the saliva/cheek cells. Shipping was included with my order - but maybe it is different to a different country. There is one owner from Germany who has used this test, and is listed in the database - clear results. Maybe they have more details on ordering internationally. I ordered the test from this link:
https://secure.offa.org/cart.html

I wish the same kind of test was available for dwarfism...that's a very expensive test for me, I think, to send blood to Europe.

Let me know if I can help you!

Marcy
