My daughter is homozygous delta F508. She wasn't diagnosed until last year just a few months shy of her 11th birthday. She has had symptoms since birth and they started out as more GI related, but by the time she was diagnosed her PFT's we're in the 40's. They went back up after a tune up, but have slowly and steadily been dropping again. I believe it does effect everyone differently becaose other genes can compensate in certain areas. Bottom line is the sooner treatment starts the better no matter what mutation is causing the cf
