My 6 month-old daughter has these mutations. If you have have one or both of these mutations, please reply and/or contact me. I'm trying to learn as much as I can.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Jenn,
My 3.5 year old son has 621 1G-T as well and Delta F508. He has moderate lung disease and elevated LFTs. We will determine if his LFTs has worsened in December as he will have his annual lab tests. It has been difficult to learn much about this mutation. Keaton doctors at the University of Minnesota and the CF physicians have not worked with this mutation; it is very rare. What have your Docs noted with you?
How are you doing with everything? Dealing with CF is a lot of continuous education for yourself and family.

My 11 year old daughter has 621 1G-T and Delta F508 as well. Her lung function hovers around 60-69% for FEV1. She did really well until around age 6. She got MRSA from the hospital and we have noted quite a decline in her lung function since this diagnosis. I thought both mutations were Delta F508 today until I asked for a printout at her clinic visit. I am curious to find out more about 621 1G-T as well.
