From what I understand, it could be. I know that you're more likely to have it if someone else in your family has it. Like, I have it, and my late nephew had it [he passed away several years ago]. I also have another nephew with schizophrenia, another one with PTSD and chronic pain, and another who's a psychopath. I'm pretty sure that my son and one of my sisters have some type of un-diagnosed MI. There is also a lot of alcoholism and drug addiction in my family.

Sorry for the rant. I am rooting for you. I know it can be nerve wracking.
