I am a 64 year old female. I was hit with influenza A in February and RSV in April. In the midst of that, I had a chest CT showing mild bronchiectasis.

I saw a pulmonologist last week. He ordered a slew of labs to rule out various causes. I do have hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos which in and of itself can cause this.

Additionally I have a pathological CFTR mutation called the G542x variant discovered on genomic testing (1 copy) which was done 5 years ago. This makes me a CF carrier, at least.

Because I have some symptoms of pancreatic insufficiency and fatty acid synthesis dysregulation and bronchiectasis and also because it could be I have a lesser common mutation also that would give me a CF diagnosis, I undergo sweat chloride testing on June 22nd.

Also with just being a carrier, there is more and more literature that you can experience mild CF symptoms.

I am curious to see what all of this will show.
