Hi,

I am posting in hopes of finding some information regarding testing Long 
Chain Fatty Acids for metabolic disorders. Our geneticist is testing our 
6 month old, and we have no information on this at all. We don't know 
what it means nor what it could mean. Our son is being tested for this 
along with other tests for metabolic disorders as he was born hearing 
impaired and now at 6 months old we find that he has cataracts. The 
doctors do not think the cataracts were congenital as he has been seen by 
numerous doctors in the past few months and no one spotted the cataracts, 
so they assume they just developed. Any information on syndromes 
associated with cataracts and hearing loss would be greatly appreciated 
as well. (Baby has already been tested for rubella, which was negative).
Thanks in advance!
Sandy
