fragile x

Just got a call from my RE she said that my gene testing showed that my fragile x is borerline abnormal.  She said it's a grey area and a complicated gene....does anyone know anything about fragile x, I like my doctor but she speaks like I am a doctor and I know what she is saying.
Any info?

no, I don't think this caused my m/c's.  I think that this is something I can pass to my child or can  be passed along down the road. Like my childrens children.  She said I will have to have an amnio done and speak with a gentetic counsoler.  I have that appointment on April 9th....
Still waiting for AF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Last period was Februar 26th!!!!!!!!!!!!!  If I don't get AF by April 11th they will give me something to bring it on.  Can't continue with this process till she shows up...grrrr....

Jess...I don't know what it is either.   Call her back up and talk to her again.   Tell her to translate it to layman's terms.   Keep us posted.
