I went through a bunch of the testing for that. They are really really strict about who they take for it. I made it through all of the testing but then none of the couples would choose me because my sister has a form of hemophilia. It's nothing terribly bad....she just has to go get some IV medication if she hits her head or cuts herself badly. She's fine on the day-to-day. But no one would pick me as a result. Despite the fact that I have a healthy child and I tested negative for the disease myself. (Though it's possible I'm a carrier....unlikely but possible.)
So just don't be too surprised if you go through a crapload of testing to hear "Sorry, no one wants you."
