An echo is only going to show a valve prolapse. If that were the case she would have ascites, pedal edema or pulmonary edema (which would have shown on the CXR). I'm not sure what is meant by silent heart burn.

The ED would have done a CXR, if not that's a serious oversight on their part. BTW, Miss T, A chest xray will give you about 0.1 mSv of radiation, while a chest CT is about 1.5 mSv. So, there really isn't a huge increase, especially when you consider the possible benefits of a higher...

Yes, sweat tests, by themselves, are not conclusive enough for a diagnosis.  You daughter needs to have genetic screening to rule out or confirm CF.  While I hope she doesn't have CF, if she does at least you'll know and be able to treat her appropriately.
