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.

well I didn't know I had it until they tested my liver when they removed it
..... just my luck...got all my family tested though
