    2nd clinic appt.

    It must be soo frustrating for you! I agree with other posters, pancreatic insufficiency helped by enzymes, finger clubbing - resembles too much to CF. How do they reconcile these symptoms with asthma? If you had a genetic test done, I hope it gives you a clear answer so you can focus on...

    Influenza A

    my dd got Influenza A last year (we don't know whether it was H1N1 or not, she was 2 y/o then. The weird thing is that the virus did not attack her lungs as i expected it would, she just had really high fever and runny nose. Don"t know if tamiflu plyed a role or not.

    CT scan report

    well, my dd just had her first lung scan and the doctor told me there is bronchial wall thickening in the middle lobe that is a result of inflammation. Inflammation is almost always present in CF b/c the body is trying to fight off the bacteria in the lungs.

    ? diagnosis

    I would request a genetic test that tests for all existing mutations (1500+). the symptoms you are describing do not fit asthma. Even though i really hope your child does not have CF, clubbing fingers and digestive issues should raise red flags since they are quite typical of CF. And as Heather...
