Guest guest Posted August 30, 2003 Report Share Posted August 30, 2003 Natasha, Was a CT scan done to look for polyps? Also does he have any of the symptoms of sinusitis, such as cough at night, intermittent low fever (99 -100), runny nose or drainage into the throat, bad breath, sore throat, facial pain or pressure, or headache? (He doesn't have to have all of these symptoms.) Regarding the nosebleeds, my daughter Kate (4 w/cf) occasionally gets them from her left nostril which (perhaps coincidentally) is the side she's about to have sinus surgery on to open up her left maxillary sinus and remove a polyp. I remember recently reading something about nosebleeds associated with steroid treatment I think, but now I can't find the reference. Anybody else know of something like this?

Guest guest Posted August 30, 2003 Report Share Posted August 30, 2003 Natasha, My daughter (who does not have CF) had really bad nose bleeds until she was about 12 years old. Her doctor said that it is not uncommon for some children to have nose bleeds. Her nose did not hurt and her voice did not change. I hope that your child also outgrows the nose bleeds. The doctor told me that blood vessels in the nasal passge are close to the surface and can bleed easy.
