Yes. Direct DNA testing and sequencing of the G6PD gene are possible, and there is also a fast an inexpensive test called the "Beutler flourescent spot test" that can be performed on the blood of a patient suspected of having G6PD.
The most significant consequence of this disorder is hemolytic anemia, which is usually episodic, but the vast majority of people with G6PD deficiency have no symptoms.
Tramadol is not on the list of contraindicated drugs for those with G6PD. Remember to always tell your doctor and pharmacist that you are G6PD Deficient and have them verify that the medicine is allowable for your use. An answer of 'probably' isn't really acceptable from a doctor making $300 an hour ;)

G6pd Defiecienct is inherited from one or both of your parents. It cannot be passed from one person to another in any other way. Females can be carriers, G6pd deficient or unaffected. If both the mother and father are G6pd deficient then all their children will be g6pd deficient.
The acronym G6PD stands for glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. It is sometimes referred to as G6PDH and is an enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway.
