Cystic Fibrosis
- Question
- Due to the baby's low body weight without other symptoms, we did several tests, including a sweat test with a pathological value of 81 and a sweat amount of 100 mg. The sweat should be 100 mg and above. We then did a genetic test on the baby. It was tested for 2000 mutations and the result was negative, it does not carry any mutations at all. Is it necessary to do a sweat test again? Note that both the sweat test and the genetic test have been done in specialized centers.
- Answer
- You should contact the specialized cystic fibrosis center that is monitoring the baby.
