Hi Steve, Just got the results for Ben's sweat test. One arm was 36 and the other 40. From your responses to other posts, it seems he is a good candidate for genetic testing. Would that be your recommendation? Also, if there is an issue with getting insurance to cover it with these sweat...

Welcome to the site. That is interesting that your son seemed to do better in warmer climate. I'm in CA and we moved from a beach area to a warmer inland area, but I haven't noticed a difference really. I don't know if my son (age 6) has CF yet, we are waiting for his sweat test appt on the...

Hi Steve, My son's asthma doctor said that the best place to have the sweat test done around here (Orange County) is at CHOC. If he has it done there and he has a borderline result, and I request the gene testing, do you know if that facility automatically uses Ambry or do I have to request it...

Thanks for your advice. My son had a two-week check up from his last flair-up with his allergy/asthma dr.(the one that brought up the sweat test). I told him my husband and I didn't want to wait until the "next time", that we want to go ahead with the sweat test now. So, the referral is in...

Thank you for your quick response. I have a call in to his Pediatrician to get things going. Donna

Hi Steve (and anyone reading!), My son's allergy/asthma doctor recently told us that next time our son (6 years old) is admitted to the hospital we should request to have the sweat test done for CF. This of course now has on red alert. My husband and I have now been doing a ton of research...
