Afraid of having Marfan's Syndrome

Hello, this is my first time using Reddit and first time making a post on here. I've always been a skinny kid and had to live with the reality of being underweight, but recently I learned that there was possibility of me having Marfan's Syndrome, due to being very thin and also hypermobile. I was very afraid because of the possible heart complications, but also thought it made sense. Doctors recommended a gene test, and the results came negative. However, I still think there's a high chance of me actually having the disease, and either way I still worry a lot about it, because not only of the health stuff but also because of self confidence. I'm here to ask if I should do the test again, or if I should just stop worrying about it, or even if anybody has any tips on how to gain weight. I've spent countless hours searching on google for information, and this has bothering me a lot. Sorry for the long post, and thanks for reading.
