We know it is a deletion on chromosome #15. It is either Angelman Syndrome or Prader-Willi Syndrome, depending on who the deletion came from. DH doesn't want to know.
The neurologist said the "treatment" is therapy. I don't know how to find out if there is some kind of stem cell treatment for it. And if there is, do I try to have another baby for the cord blood? We didn't bank hers.
I'm so ANGRY though because I had an amnio...it should have found this!!!
We were supposed to do the genetic testing last year to find out if DS, me or DH had a chromosone issue and for future children. But we ending up not subjecting DS to it.
The amnio does NOT detect all the chromosone issues. Only the main one. There are about 1000 possible chromosone problems. Each one is to be done individually to be sure.
