Combination of DF508/R1162L
After testing I was found to carry the c.3485G>(R1162L) mutation and my husband the DF508 mutation, both in heterozygote. Does the combination of these two mutations cause CF, or any other pathology? Thank you in advance.

CF
After an amniocentesis the CF mutations DF508 was found in the fetus. My wife does not carry the DF508 and was checked for 89% of CF mutations. I was tested and we await the results. Even if I am a carrier, what are the chances of the baby being a carrier or having CF? Thank you.

CF mutations
The mother carries the mutation G542X in heterozygote status and the father the nucleotic change c.949G>C (p.Val317Leu) of the CFTR gene. The fetus, after an amniocentesis carries the G542X mutation from the mother and the p.Val317Leu mutation from the father. How severe will the CF be?

combination of DF508/R750Q
I am 21 weeks pregnant in my first child and I was found to carry the DF508 mutation in heterozygote status. My husband was found to carry the R750Q mutation, also in heterozygote status. I would like to ask: 1. What are the chances of the fetus inheriting both genes? 2. What mild symptoms does this combination result in? 3. Is there a chance of the symptoms being severe? 4. What is the chance of sterility?
