My daughter has been dx failure to thrive twice now.  She is 5 yr.  Her fecal elastase came back normal, >500. 
she's had two borderline sweat test 41 & 50.  She has chronic constipation that i think is caused from her redundant colon although i have read that chronic constipation can cause a redundant colon. 
Is anyone Pancreatic sufficient and still failure to thrive? 
We are still waiting the results of the genetic testing.
