Well, we got word yesterday that Cheyenne's blood work came back positive. Says that she has 2 mutations and 1 of something else. What the other is I'm not sure, but I will find out Monday when I can call myself and get the information. I know nothing about these mutations and what happens. Can anyone help me out? I feel so dense!

Patricia,

Firstly, I'm sorry to hear the confirmation of the CF diagnosis. It's definitely not the outcome any of us would choose but know you are in very good company.

Here's a link to a thread that I replied to regarding mutations/genes. Although these mutations are likely not the same as your granddaughter's it is a good place to start your "research".

As for the 2 mutations and 1 of something else, I'm a little confused on that. Do you mean to say she has 2 CF mutations and a single mutation of "something else"? Maybe 2 CF mutations with a variant?

Im sorry to hear about your granddaughter, my daughter was just diagosed also and I know you are devastated. It is a very scary thing. The people here are always willing to help and are also very informative and can answer your questions better than I ever could.

From what I understand the mutations really mean nothing as far as Cf goes, it is different in every person, (meaning people with the same mutations can have totally different problems), Im still confused, but my heart does go out to you and your family.

the doctor told us that she has two mutations for CF and one for something else. I'm just as confused as you all are. I do thank you for your kind words and your help.
