I got the dreaded call when my son was about 3 months old. He tested positive at his newborn screening. I jumped online to see what it was and immediately went into shock. After a few hours of crying and making phone calls I called my local CF center to set an appointment. He had several tests done and according to the Dr. he has a very rare mutation that even he (and the other Dr.) couldn't tell me much about. (I have to look at my paper work to remember it). This is where I am a little confused... they did mention that some children/adults have more severe cases and some more milder cases. My son has no symthoms what so ever. I am not complaining here but my question is... Can one have CF and never has symthoms or even develop them later on in life?
