    Sweart test results are 31

    While it is possible to be perfectly healthy and have a sweat chloride in the 30's, i have read that around 23% of people with a sweat chloride above 30 have two CFTR mutations. To sum up, i agree with others push for more testing.

    What's lowest sweat test result,but was still DX w/CF thru genetic testing

    Hi I just want to add that i am so sorry for your difficulties. Also as everyone has said, i think you should get the ambry test so you can feel confident it is NOT CF if that is in fact the case. I am sort of thinking that if your pulmo doesn't suspect CF it could be something else and i...

    daughter had 2 seperate sweat tests, but they were both done on same arm-

    i was under the impression that usually sweat was collected from both arms for quality control purposes. The sweat chloride concentration should be close (not identical though) from each arm. If they are very different that typically indicates an error was made by the lab or the technician or...

    not what the dr ordered

    I have read that they need a minimum of 75 mg sweat for an accurate result (i think it was in CFF guidlelines too) although i think this may vary somewhat according to protocol since i have seen other numbers cited elsewhere....Was the test preformed by an accredited CF facility??? Of course...
