We did the genome testing as well. Nothing showed up. My geneticist sees us every year. He says my son has something, but they haven't figured out the test for it yet apparently. So we just wait and see. He said the actual test grinds new items about every 5 years.

I did the Yasko genomic tests, and found that my son has a few mutations, MTHFR< SOD, that's mean he cant use some of the supplements I ahd given, and need specific forms: example: folinic acid instead of folic acid, Methyl B12 instead of other form of b12 or B6,
they are expensive when not covered by insurance...

We did it and my daughter has a duplicated chromosome pair. We didn't get any more info. I think most people do the testing if they plan on having another kid but we didn't plan on having more kids.
