Well who knows but my pulmo told me that Ambry's CF genetic screening that he ordered can detect over 99.9% of described mutations, including full gene sequencing and deletion/duplication analysis, which can detect the vast majority of mutations that cause cystic fibrosis in individuals. So chances are I do not have it. I do not have all the symptoms either... I imagine there is still much to discover with CF.

I'm not sure if I had the Ambry's test, something to ask. I really didn't think about it until my Dr mentioned I had a little cystic BE, but probably due to when I had an atypical form of pneumonia-which required 3.5 years of daily antibiotics. I imagine the same-still more to discover.
