Thanks I will look into that. Appreciate it

Agreed. Well I officially got the Dr. to completely listen this time and get it hinted to him that I very well may have CF.. or at LEAST an underlying problem that exsists for me being sick with lung/sinus/throat infections all the time. I feel like I've lived on amoxociilan(spelling?) for...

Ok after making a few phone calls... one person said I could go to any lab.. to have the lab work done (basically any hospital) and they would do a "send out"..317-491-6000 was the number for the dr.(lab) to get the info to send it out.... is it ok to go to any lab.. or would i be better off...

Sounds like me to the T. I'll be going to the Dr. tomorrow most likely and since I've been to an allergist before (grant it, it was 15 years ago... I was literally allergic to all dust/mold/pollen there is etc... only two things I showed negative on the prick test was cats and dogs.) So I don't...

Really Appreciate all the concern here... Nearest largest City is Indianapolis. However I would be willing to Travel to For-twayne if someone had a very good experience there. (I'm pretty positive Lafayette,IN doesn't have anything I'm looking for) Shocking to come to a forum and see people...

Thanks for the post and I went to see my Dr. I'm generally not happy with the situation... she didn't even get out her stetheschope and basically gave me a talk.. I even brought in a list dating back of tonsil removal and adenoids at at 5... on up.... to lung infections... siniuses etc.. I...

Thanks for the advice.. i'm 30 now.. I talked to my mother earlier today (she remembers the whole ordeal a bit more then me) she said I was tested twice at one hospital positive then tested at Riley Children and tested negative. I called my dr. and they are full but after explainging me...
