    Hi  

    If no one here has experience of this and you get no replies :(

    You could post this question in the 'Ask an Expert' - Nurse area using this link.

    As it is a bit 'techie' - VUS can mean Variants of Uncertain Significance, but I have no idea how this fits in with the ATM gene ?

    Maybe the nurse can help you understand this, although it takes them a few days to reply.

    Hi

    I'm not familiar with this but you might find the info on this FORCE webpage useful.

    Best wishes

    • Me too. I got my negative results but there was a atm gene mutation mentioned without explanation. I’ve been googling but can’t find any answers x
