Hey Everyone, it's been a long wait through all this, and the people here have been amazing. Thank you. We had a sweat test and the result was 30, putting us right in the bottom of the borderline group. Like I said before, he did have the basic panel done and it reviled 1 mutation (DF508). Then...

Thank you Nancy. I am trying to decide if the 30 (elevated) might have been caused by him being a carrier or possible he has some rare 2nd mutation? Of course we pray he's a carrier. He's pretty symptom free to this point. Is it normal for someone to have a 2x sweat test count on the second...

Thanks for the feedback. Honestly waiting another 2 weeks for another test is really hard. I am trying to calm myself down today but I have a feeling these coming weeks are going to be painful. I'll be praying for sure and trusting God has the plan for us. Does anyone else know if being a CF...

Thanks Ratatosk for the reply. How long ago was this done? We had the initial genetic test done which found a single DF508 mutation. I know there are tons more possible mutations out there, however I'd assume the basic panel tests for the most common ones. If he was double 508 wouldn't that...

Hey Everyone, I made a post in another section but I wanted to ask your opinions on my situation. Our son is almost 4 weeks old. His NBS came back with an elevated IRT of 72 and they did the basic genetic panel test. It showed he had 1 mutation (DF508). This afternoon we took him for a sweat...

Hey Aleksandra, I am glad to read your post. We took our son in today for his sweat test. His newborn screen showed a little elevated IRT (72) and then the basic genetic panel found 1 gene mutation (DF508). Now we had the sweat test today and the result was 30, just like your little girl. He has...

Just wanted to check, when your kids and yourselves had the screen, what was their IRT level? I read that 65 is the level that triggers a 2nd test, but some States pick out the top 5% of that day? Thanks!
