this is my first time posting a message not sure if i am doing this correctly.
I have a 6 month old boy and he went to the ER at 8wks old and stayed in the hospital for 2 months. previously he was diagnosed with milk allergies and possibly coming down with a virus at the same time. he had lots of blood in the stool and watery diahrrea. his pancreas was not working and he was not gaining weight. now is pancreas is at 195 and above 200 is normal. after a month in the hospital the decided to do a sweat test it cames back 44 and another one came back i believe 49. at birth the blood test were negative and his father is negative. he also had the 2 month blood screening which was negative. but the sweat tests are almost positive. i have read that sweat test should not be performed on sick children and he was deathly sick. so they ordered a third sweat test dec 18th. can anyone help me.
