Yesterday, we met with the genetics doctors, who are isolating the sixth chromosome on the DNA chain for further examination. My son Thomas, who has salt-losing CAH, also has ACC, agenesis of the corpus callosum, two very rare conditions, that also occur if there is translocation of the sixth chromosome; where either part is missing, or there is a part there that shouldn't be. Or, if there is a defect, that could affect neighboring chromosomes, which in turn could indicate a syndrome. They explained that, although CAH is normally autorecessive, it could occur spontaneously as a defect in the sixth chromosome, which may indicate that his father and I are NOT carriers of the defective gene, as we have been thinking. If there is anything found, I believe his father and I will have further genetics tests done on ourselves, to see if we carry the defective gene. Interesting, I think. Just passsing it on.Jennifer C
