    Crowdfunding: Trial By Error: [David Tuller] Reporting on ME, CFS, "medically unexplained symptoms," and related stuff, 2020

    I think this has been asked other years, yet I can't remember the answer and perhaps the answer is different now. Is there a place to send checks for those who can't for whatever reason donate on the internet? Thank you so much David for your dedication and incredible work you do!

    I have a 23 and Me kit in my room for years. Hesitant to use it cause of privacy issues. Was wondering are there tests that a doctor's office can run that would be similar to 23 and Me? Then I wouldn't have to be concerned about my results, how they are going to use it now or in the future...
