Unless you happened to eat contaminated beef or some special dish that is made from the brains and/or spinal cord of an unknowingly infected cow, chances of getting the human form of Mad Cow Disease are slim. They get even slimmer if you have abstained from eating any beef during this outbreak crisis when you lived in the U.K. during that frightening period.

What chances does an offspring have of getting Gaucher Disease?
It depends on whether your parents are carriers or not. If they are NN (or normal normal) and they have sex with someone who is Nn (or normal gauchers) than using a punnet square the chances of them becoming a carrier are 50 50. If your parents are both carriers ie. Nn Nn then the chances of them becoming a carrier are 50% and them having the disease is 25%. If your parents are nn Nn then the chances of them becoming a carrier is 50% and the chances of them having the disease is 50% so they will either be a carrier or have the disease either way. If your parents are nn NN then there is a 100% chance of them being a carrier. You can figure this out by looking at your family tree and seeing who had the disease before you in your family. This is only very basic Mendelian genetics so i would consult a doctor for a more legitimate answer.
