Guest guest Posted April 29, 2003 Report Share Posted April 29, 2003 Hello all... I have a question that hopefully someone can help me with. We have been going through the CF testing. We did 3 sweat tests and the DNA. The sweat test came back borderline and the DNA came back fine they said. My 5 year old son had pneumonia and both of his lungs colapsed when he was born. No one ever told me why. Ever since he has been sick all the time...never really gains any weight ( people are always asking me if I ever feed him, but he eats all the time)...his skin is salty...his lungs are enlarged...and his stools are frequent, large, bulky, and very smelly. He also gets really tired after playing in the heat for just 1 hour. He then will come in the house for about 1 hour and get his second wind and go back out again. This will happen all day long. Finally my doctor told me that he probally has pancreatic disorder, but no other testing has been done. Does anyone know of any other testing that we could do? I am about ready to change doctors. The doctor that I have is CF affiliated. Please HELP!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
