I am not sure, but it sounds like this is one of the nearly 100 diferent mutations of CF that have been discovered. CF isn't caused by a single change, but by many diferent ones. The best thing to do is to wait until you get to the genetic specialist who will have the entire test result and will be familiar with exactly what is there and can explain it to you. In the meantime don't worry, it won't change anything.
