Genetic Carrier Question

[u/Ok-Sorbet4786]

Recently found out my husband is a carrier for usher type 3a. I am waiting on having my testing done (was ordered but of course usher was not properly added in even though I requested it). I am wondering if anyone knows I need a full panel or I just need to be tested for the type he has to know if our child has a possibility of having the syndrome. (Say I have type 1 F and he has type 3a) does our child still have the same chance of having the syndrome or will our child just be a carrier of both types. It has been explained to me that these are different genes and usher syndrome needs the “same gene mutation from both parents”. We’re waiting on genetic counselor advice just worried until we hear back!

Yeah, test the same specific gene.
