Did you all find the DNA testing useful? Did it tell you things like succeptibility to cancer?

My carrier statuses weren't my primary reasons for taking the DNA test, but it was nice to know that I don't have variants for any of the conditions they test for. There are 41 including sickle cell anemia and tay-sachs. If you're interested in susceptibility to cancer, you can download the raw data of your DNA from the 23andme website and upload it to Promethease for $5 to analyze. This will give you much more health related information.

Interesting! I sent away for my DNA to be tested by 23andme back in February, but I'm still waiting on the results to come in.
