    Excessive appetite

    This was absolutely our experience before our diagnosis. I never counted the calories but our daughter was constantly hungry and constantly eating. She fell from the 95 percentile at birth to below the 25 percentile by the time she was diagnosed (at age 3 yrs 3 months).

    belly aches

    Debbie - I sent you a private message as well. Your story of oil and loose stools, yet your daughter is not on enzymes, alarms me. The oil floating in the toilet and the frequency and looseness of the stools, the constant tummy aches, etc. is how Katy was diagnosed. Please please your...

    Christmas gift only a CFer would ask for :-)
