As I recall it took a few weeks to get the genetic results. I was not given any other test for CF. Just the genetic and my pulmo did the most advanced genetic option (very expensive). My results were negative and chances are yours will be too. It is very rare to get a diagnosis so late in life. But if they are positive there are new options now for CF that can make a big difference.

Thank you for this response. Yes, the new options do sound promising if you have the right gene mutation, and from what I was told, the care from the CF Foundation is impeccable. Hoping I and any others receiving a positive sweat test don't have to find out! Again thank you!
