hey Kel, which test was used to identify your gene?

if you didn't get the full panel test (test of all known CF genes), there is a possibility you all have another CF copy (for a total of two)..... chances are rare, but if you both are having health issues, I would push for an Ambry Amplified full panel genetic test.

Hi Kel & welcome. We've had many discussions, especially in the family section, about carrier symptoms. I am a symptomatic carrier. That being said, I do not know if I have a second rare gene that is still undiscovered, which would change my status from carrier to CFer, but I do know that I have a lot of symptoms. I hope you find the answers you need to help you and your daughter feel better. Even if you are only carriers with symptoms, you might benefit from some of the treatments.

thanl you all for your answers...the reason i asked is because i seem to be having a lot of problems with my stomach...really bloated and digestion is not great at all!!
i dont have ibs, but im begining to think i have a diary intolerance as it seems better if i dont eat cheese or have milk...also white bread, i am also tired all the time and have to sleep for 12 hours for me to feel like i have bben asleep!

my daughter, although only 3, is having a hard time with her bowels....she knows when she needs to go, but cant catch it...i dont think its a behaviour problem because she doesnt do it very often....i didnt know if this was cg related, but i wanted to ask........

i forgot to say....i dont know what sort of test i had...they took blood and then i got the results, thats all i know.......my daughter had the blood test and a sweat test, and my younger daughter had the blood test...they found her clear so they didnt do a sweat test..they said i could do that later on, when she is older.

is there a websire i could look at about carriers? all i find is symptoms of cf, not of carriers????
