Re: Re: Borderline Sweat Test/Jan

And once you pass 60, they send you right to dna testing and sweat

test the whole family in California--although there are several mutations

that have not been found, and several that do no produce elevated sweat

chloride. Then there are the paradoxes; one of my cf carrier adults has

heat prostration, salt all over her skin, coughs like a seal and is not ill,

and produces a sweat test of 26. Some things, even in science, are not

written in stone, nor even in agar! Love to you and kids, Jan, n

> > In California, that is considered " likely diagnostic " for cf as

the average of 20-25 is so much lower than that. No one wants a

child to have cf

I never knew that (average is 20-25)
