Paget's Disease of Bone
Frequently Asked Questions
9. Should relatives of a person with
Paget's disease get tested?
Because Paget's disease can be hereditary, some experts recommend
that the brothers, sisters, and children of people with Paget's
disease talk to their doctor about having an alkaline phosphatase
blood test every 2 to 3 years after age 40. Paget's disease is rare
in people under 40.
