Sitting here in tears and am shocked

When clinics order testing for partners, which do they do - most common mutations or the fullest panel possible .... or something else?</end quote>
When we were trying to get pregnant we paid for my hubby to have the Ambry test (cost us $450 I think since we paid in cash) because we felt it was important to screen for the most mutations considering our kids will already be carriers. DH is not a carrier.
Khristina - Sorry that your clinic screwed up <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0"> If you thought you were misled by your mom consider this - my parents didn't tell me I had CF till I was 14 even though I was diagnosed as an infant. Apparently my mom was in denial since I was always so healthy. I always knew my brother had CF since he was diagnosed at birth due to my CF status (he was 3.5 years younger than me). Crazy huh. I felt betrayed for a while but I am over it now. And I always thought I was Double DF508 though I don't know where I got that info. Turns out I am DF508 and M1101R. Ambry ID'd the other gene a few years ago when I volunteered for some study before they went public with their CF mutation test.
