    Coughing up blood?

    I'm not too sure if anyone would be on call, because there is only one doctor. He only comes to the clinic on Wednesdays, but he is available at his office should something come up on other weekdays... I'm curious to know what the clinics are like in the U.S. (I'm in Canada) It sounds like...

    Coughing up blood?

    Thanks to everyone! I did finally speak to the nurse this morning, she told me it was nothing to worry about. We're going to clinic on Wednesday, so she told me just to remind them about it when we are there. I think I'm going to have to ask if there's anyone I can talk to on weekends/holidays...

    Coughing up blood?

    Hi everyone! Last night, my son coughed up a small amount of blood during his CPT. He had never coughed anything up before, and I was quite alarmed. Anyways, today's a holiday, and the clinic is closed (of course these things only ever happen on weekends and holidays!). I don't want to over...

    TConfused... Thanks for the replies!! We're in Canada, so I'm not sure where the genetic testing is being done. We were being seen at a CF clinic, I just feel as though we've been brushed off for the time being. Oh well, I suppose I just need to work on my patience a little. Thanks again for...

    Confused...

    Hi everyone! I'm a little confused with the diagnosis (or lack of) in my two sons. They both have had positive sweat tests, (76 and 89), and have the delta F508 mutation. The doctor only ran the test for the more common mutations, so they only found the one. He has ordered the full test, but...
