    Welcome Ambry Genetics

    Steve, Thank you for the information. I do not know the numbers from the sweat test results, just that they were "normal." I have requested a copy of the results so should know soon. What kind of "borderline" or near borderline results would indicate that genetic testing may be helpful? I am...

    Welcome Ambry Genetics

    Steve, Just received "normal" test results for our daughter's sweat test though she has many of the common symptoms of cystic fibrosis and I have a family history of the disease. I still have concerns and would like to know for certain whether she has cf or is a carrier. Does Ambry maintain...

    We decided to not proceed w/ genetic testing until the sweat test results come back. We understand there's no such thing as a false-positive sweat test so we wouldn't need to do genetic testing if the sweat test is positive. What we're really hoping for is a negative sweat test, at which time...

    So, as I've posted in some other areas on this site already, we decided to pursue CF testing for our 3-year old daughter this month due to family history, never-ending respiratory "infections", salty skin and digestive issues. Despite the signs and symptoms, her pediatrician acted like I'm just...

    Am testing d/t family history (my brother passed away at age 7), her chronic respiratory infections, mucousy and foul-smelling stools, salty skin. I'm hoping there's something "nicer" out there that would cause the same symptoms. Thanks for your replies!

    How Were You / Your Loved One Diagnosed?

    Thank you all for your replies. My daughter was scheduled to see her ped for her 3-year well-check yesterday but we had a significant snowstorm here in Milwaukee so her ped's office closed. She's rescheduled for Monday 12/4 so we'll see how it goes as far as her ped being willing to proceed w/...
