For those of you who are carriers or have children who are carriers (particularly F508), can you tell me if it is normal to sometimes taste salty? My infant son is a carrier and once in awhile I can pick up a salty trace if I lick the top of his head (behind the hairline, close to his soft spot). I cannot taste it by just kissing, only licking. The taste cannot be found anywhere else on his body. I realize we all have salt in our sweat, but what is considered abnormal? He has absolutely no other symptoms at all. Thanks for any input!!!
