    chickening out!

    definitely don't give up. All those symptoms do sound like CF and many patients have very low sweat test numbers and still have CF. Did they just run a panel as a genetic test? If so, you should ask for the complete test which covers all know mutations. Good luck and keep us posted

    Texture Issues

    my dd is 3 and she used to be like that too. Would jus gag on anything unmashed but would eat bread etc fine. I was also very worried but with all we have to handle cf related did not have time to attend to this issue. Now she is 3 and i feel that it has become less of an issue so have faith!

    All natural!

    I give lemon water to my dd several times a day. I found it helped reduce congestion. I also give her coconut oil, flaxseed oil and tumeric (sprinkled on food)
