Re: Carrier For Spinal Muscular Atrophy
Yes, I am a carrier. Fortunetly, my husband was tested and he is not. My best advice to you is not to drive yourself crazy looking things up online (something I did while waiting for the results of my DH to come back).
Are you a patient of Hanneur/Dolisi?

I know i am trying to stay calm but i cant help it. Just the thought.
I am a former Dr Braverman patient and now i see Dr Pilliterri and Dr Kofinas.

I am a carrier also and was so nervous. DH was not, thankfully. They say it's very rare and not to worry. I know it's difficult though.

Re: Carrier For Spinal Muscular Atrophy
I am a carrier and DH is not. Between finding out that I was a carrier and waiting for him to get tested, for his results to come in was the hardest part of this pregnancy so far.
That your DH is not a carrier

Re: Carrier For Spinal Muscular Atrophy
Hang in there and try not to freak yourself out too much. I found out I was a carrier for Tay Sachs and completely panicked. My DH was not. The time in between the tests was awful, but in the end worked out. Good luck!!!!
