Do I have Huntingtons symptoms?

Hello all, my dad recently passed away from suicide because he had Huntington’s disease and he was taking it very very bad. My grandma started symptoms around age 60 and the doctor said she was introduced penetration but we don’t know how many CAG repeated she had. My father started showing symptoms around age 52 and we also did not know his cag repeat number my sister was just confirmed to have 41 repeats of the gene and I am terrified. I am 23 years old and I am experiencing very very bad cognition problems stiffness in my left foot and I feel like I have coordination problems. Every day feel so overwhelming and I felt perfectly fine just one year ago. How unlikely would it really be for this to be Huntington’s disease?
