      Can adults be diagnosed with a genetic condition later in life, even if they had no symptoms as children?

      Yes. Some genetic conditions only show symptoms later in life, such as certain heart conditions, hereditary cancers, or neurological conditions. A person can carry a gene change for years without any signs before it becomes apparent.
