Well the only reason i mention it is because... I have been very prone to sinus issues and have been diagnosed after having an mri scan I believe it was with chronic sinusitis. I get a cold and it tends to the majority of the time turn into an infection. I never take decongestants because I...

I am finally relieved that my daughters spitting up is now being treated as Reflux\Gerd.... The truth is it only took, soaking the exam table at the peditrician to prove it! She did an excellent job at two months old of advocating for her own treatment. There is some part of me, finally...

Hi, I was interested intrigued by the answer steve returned. He said that a sweat test result of thirty for a newborn was positive...he did say he didn't know where she was born or if any genetic testing had been done yet. I responded back letting him know that she was born in orlando fl, and...

I know from reading other online information...that bilirubin can affect the test for cf...if that is correct or i'm understanding it correctly then it would make sense to run the screen again.. peditrician informed me this was the second one that came back with it not the first. Would they run...
