I finally figured out how to start my own topic, and a few have replied in other threads.
Anyone else with more info would be greatly appreciated.
I'd like some information on these two genes: F508 and W1282x.
My 2 week old granddaughter just recieved her lab results back from her newborn screening. It stated there was a high likelyhood that she has cystic fibrosis. With these 2 genes is it still possible that she doesn't? She also recieved her first sweat test a couple of days ago and we are awaiting the results.
She is a breastfed baby and we are noticing that she seems to be uncomfortable when she's about to have a BM. However they seem normal for a breastfed baby.
Any words of wisdom would be apprecitated. Also if someone could comment on what they know about the symptoms etc. associated with these to genes would be wonderful.
I'm so happy to have found this website!
