    Still Waiting......!!!!!

    I can understand. My son just had his blood drawn for the Quest Complete Genetic Sequencing and we were told 8-12 weeks. I guess for us it isn't so nerve racking since he already has had one positive sweat test, so we know he has it. Sometimes I think there is no way, perhaps it was a lab...

    Finally got blood drawn for genetic test

    It has been a long journey just to get this point. First the CF Center wouldn't use Quest so it was up to me get that one figured out. My ped had no idea what kind of test to order. She felt that since the first test was negative that he couldn't have it. I finally got into a geneticist who...

    Welcome Ambry Genetics

    Thank you Steve for you answers. I am going to get the Quest done as soon as possible and then we will go from there. We are of Ashkenazi decent, are there any things that they could look or test for that would relate specifically to our ethnicity? I know when I was screened this information...

    New to CF ? re testing

    Thanks for your responses. I edited my post above basically saying the doctors don't think Quests test is comparable at all and they will not value the results of it, should I have it done. I have posted a question to the Ambry thread. Perhaps he will be able to offer some insight on how they...

    I talked to the doctor and was told the Quest test was useless. Unfortunately because we cannot afford the Ambry test he will not be getting testing. On the Quest Diagnostics site it does say they offer: Complete rare mutation analysis, entire gene sequence and CFTR gene duplicatin and...
