Update on ?? Carrier symptoms

anonymous

New member
Hi Guys,I wrote a few weeks ago to ask you all about symptoms in carriers, as I have had many (only recently been told that I have the delta f508 mutation).I'm going to see my GP (PCP equiv) in about 10 hours time to ask him, if he will authorise a sweat test for me, through the CF clinic. So cross your fingers/pray that he will not think I'm stupid. I've written down my life history, since I was three months old and all the events that have happened in regards to lungs and liver/digestion etc, so hopefully he will listen and agree.I know at my age, if my sweat test is positive then that means it will only be the 'atypical' type of CF, however I think that it could be beneficial to know for sure, to assist with any treatment in my 'old age' hehe!Keep those fingers crossed!Megan
