Back to List of Questions
My younger brother was recently diagnosed with hypereosinophilic (HES) syndrome.  I would like to know if this condition has a genetic element.

We hope this information is helpful. We strongly recommend you discuss this information with your doctor. If you still have questions, please contact us.

Warm regards,
