So his sweat test came back positive. I think I'm pretty much numb right now. I've had crying spells but so far not too bad. He's going to go to the CF specialist next. What r they going to do now. I know they're donig the genetic testing but what else are they going to do at this point?

They may want to do a throat culture, see if he's growing any CF bugs. Depending upon his symptoms, they may want to start him on nebs, cpt, digestive enzymes. Bring along a notebook to ask question and to write down anything the doctor might say. Might forget to ask something you feel is important and it's had to pay attention when emotions are high, you're distracted with your child...

I'm sorry your son's sweat test was positive. Even if you half expect it, it's hard to hear. As Liza said, take a notebook to the appt. It's very hard to remember things when your emotions are so high, and there's so much to take in. Just take everything one step at a time.
The clinic will start your son on a treatment routine that best suits his needs/symptoms. That is the good news in this diagnosis. Now, he can get the treatments he needs to feel better. We'll be here for you. Let us know how the appt. goes.
