Guest guest Posted October 1, 2003 Report Share Posted October 1, 2003 My six year old girl with CF was born with meconium illeus. She has been in the hospital with sever abdominal pain. To make a long story short, she was passing small amounts of blood in her stools, X-ray's showed a large amount of gas build up in the large intestine and stool in the small intestine. they performed a barium enema and that cleaned her out. she felt better after that but after she ate she started hurting again. She had loose stools but not runny stools. The x-ray's showed no blockages or adhesions from earlier surgery. after a week in the hospital she has been sent home. They are now telling me she could have Ulcerative colitis but does not want to do a colonoscopy until she is feeling better and not hurting. My Question is, How is this related to CF? has anyone out there had this and what is your experience with this? Tracey Oldham toldham@...
