Several types: These range from mild birth defects detectable only using the lab to some serious problems that may result in skeletal growth problems and/or require medication. It's been suggested that dickens' "tiny tim" suffered one of the RTA variants. I'm glad you are taking a proactive approach and hope you will find the exact diagnosis and expected outcome -- your physician is bound by law to share this.
