Guest guest Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 It oftens seems like there are some similarities between some CF sysmptons and Samters, although obviously CF is a chronic disease. Is anyone aware of a suggestion of the similarity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Samters is a chronic disease too, except unlike CF it presents later in life. I'm also interested in hearing about any connections.BeckyFrom: davidintriton <davidbirchlondon@...>samters Sent: Thursday, 13 October 2011, 15:37Subject: Samters & Cystic Fibrosis It oftens seems like there are some similarities between some CF sysmptons and Samters, although obviously CF is a chronic disease.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Years ago there was suggestion that Samters was an adult-onset form of CF, but I don't know what happened to the idea. I think researchers discarded it.Billie Ford msbfford@... "Well behaved women seldom make history."

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 I did see an allergist who wanted to rule out adult onset cystic fibrosis. Although most commonly CF presents itself early in life i t can surface in adulthood. To rule this out I had to have a sweat test. it was done at a childrens hosptal in the area. > > Samters is a chronic disease too, except unlike CF it presents later in life.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 My allergist was about to diagnose CF until I failed the sweat test. "Just" Samters.Billie Ford msbfford@...
