Hi I'm not really sure if this is what we're supposed to do here but I'll be telling you about our experience with CF for the last couple of years. My daughter was born on december 20th 2010 and was diagnosed through newborn screening. She did not and still does not show any symptoms. The...

Well, I was told the tests were not performed by her personally but that the samples were sent to a research lab in Korea. I'm not sure how well trusted that lab would be, but the weird thing is that we were not the only case in her study; there were several more cases and we were the only one...

Hi Steve, I would like to have my daughter retested since I don't really trust her first results. Is it possible for me to send a blood sample internationally? And if I do send and ask for the CF amplified test how long should I expect the results to take? And can I expect and interpretation of...

Hey SarahProcter, I'm so glad to hear your daughter is doing so well too. Hearing about such cases always gives me so much hope and pushes me even more towards keeping on with our proactive plan. I won't lie to you, there are times that I feel so desperate and all I want to do is throw the...

Thank you for your response Printer, As I remember, the first test that came back positive was done as a complete sequencing for the whole gene. As for the study, I was then told thatthe studentwas specifically looking at mutations on exon 13 of the CFTR gene (which both of my daughter's...

Hi there... I know this is kind of an old thread but I was wondering how your son is doing now? I hope and pray that he is still doing as well and that no symptoms have emerged. My daughter is kind of in the same place although she is still 14 months old, but like your son she is doing really...

Thank you all for your feedback. I will definitely ask about this on our next appointment, but I just needed to try and ease my mind a little bit until then.

What does mucus in stool mean? Does it necessarily mean that my baby is pancreatic insufficient? Or is mucus always there in CF patients' stool whether they are PI or PS? I'm asking because my baby has no symptoms until now except for a viscous mucus-y stool. She's growing well but I'm starting...
