Guest guest Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 Hi everyone, Zach is constantly scratching his head. His skin is not appear dry or irritated in any way, but he is always scratching his head. He has always done this and I wondered if CF people have unusually dry skin. Is anyone else's baby always scratching? Sara - mommy to Zach 17 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2003 Report Share Posted July 12, 2003 I definately think its something to be concerned about. My beautiful 14 year old lost all of her hair this past year because of some type of autoimmune difienciency thing. That I still think was related to a vitamin deficiency because of the cf. It's been a horrible year for her and she's just proved herself once again to be a strong, beautful person, getting through yet another herdle CF put in front of her. So be careful and keep an eye on it. At such a young age, it may not be as traumatic, but at the age of 14 it was devestating.
