Haemochromatosis is an inherited condition in which iron levels in the
//
body slowly build up over many years.

This build-up of iron, known as iron overload, can cause unpleasant
symptoms. If it isn't treated, this can damage parts of the body such
as the liver, joints, pancreas and heart.

And there's a specific genetic test for it now, so diagnosis isn't
hit-or-miss.
