After having a borderline sweat test another one in a month is not going to do anything for a definitiave diagnosis one way or another. I had multiple repeated borderline sweat tests, anything 40-60 is considered borderline but there are some pushign to have a negative defined as anything under 20 which would further expand the 'borderline' category.

Please pursue genetic testing via ambrey. You can do a search on here and find alot of info or visit the section hosted by ambry. Your daughter definately fits diagnostic criteria, between that and a borderline test you should be able to get it covered from your insurance.
