Vertex-770 potentiator
Dear expert team, my son's genotype is DF508 and R347P. As VX-770 only studies effectiveness in G551D (and DF508) at the moment I wonder what the probability is that this drug also works for other (class III-V) mutations with a certain functionality of the CFTR protein (my son must have some functionality as he is pancreatic sufficient). I guess that further studies have to be done but I would like to understand the working method of the drug and if it can be applied to other mutations. I would also like to understand why the company only focus on one specific mutation. Thank you.

Question
Dear experts, I would like to know more about atypical forms of cystic fibrosis and tests, especially forms with involvement of the digestive system and the pankreas. Are there forms of Mukoviszidose without an involvement of the lung or at least a very late involvement of the lung within the process of the illness? I read about infections with pseudomonas which do occur very often with this illness; is a long lasting infection with pseudomonas in a toe an indicator for cystic fibrosis? Many thanks in advance.

US compatible nebulizer
We are traveling in France (to visit my mother in law's family) and burned out the moter on our Pari Ultra II nebulizer even using an adapter. We are renting a nebulizer now but wondered if it would be possible to find a nebulizer that would work here but be compatible with US voltage (100-230 volts) for when we get back. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance for any suggestions given.
