these sound different to other CF kids....

thanks, i ended up taking him into ed last night as he turned blue from a coughing fit. he has a few infections at the moment that just wont clear up even with three different types of antibiotics tried. he is very chesty at the moment and i have found what looks like yellow phlem and dried blood on his blanket from his cot. they have said to me that if his infections dont clear up in a weeks time they are doing tests for CF. they also took a mucous test from his nose with a suction kit. i dont know what for? he was previously mis diagnosed with severe GERD but now found to not have it as a barium swallow showed no reflux and no medications for reflux have worked. i also noticed that he was not a typical refluxer in some aspects anyhow because he did not vomit all that much and he would not cry when i layed him on his back. he seems to have gas pains all the time and is a big man farter.lol. he also farts and has a small bowel movement with it. his sleeping is not that great either. thanks for all your support and i will update how we go with tests etc...

CF kids come in 2 brands with eating, the ones who eat so much you just about go into debt feeding them, and the ones who want nothing to do with food! Typically the non-eaters get a lot of GI symptoms (cramps, gas, bloating) when they eat.
