What does my genetic report mean?
We wrote a blog, but as I’ve had this conversation a few dozen times, my answer is simpler now. Is it missense or is it truncating? If missense, do more research, if truncating, it is in the first 4 exons (p. Address of 129 or lower).
Who else has it? Look on ClinVar and call SRF.
