If you are just a carrier, you do not have cf, nor can you get it. It takes 2 genes (one acquired from each parent) to obtain the disease, and you are born with it. You can bear young that are carriers, but you can not have a child with cf unless your mate also carries one copy of the gene, and then the chance is approximately 25%.

Kel,

there are instances of symptomatic carriers, but that research is still being done. I know that in our immediate family, although the rest of us are just carriers, we still have a number of us with Severe Asthma, as well as GI problems and pancreatic problems, my husband also has salty skin although he has been gene tested and only has one copy of the gene as far as we know (they did the 30 most common gene test). So it isnt a crazy question to ask.

hope this helps.
