Dear all,
Thankx for reading this topic.
My little girl (6,5) is suspected of having Cystic Fibrosis.
She has pneumonia at the moment, is very skinny,
has heavy constipation problems and becomes ill from warmth.
The pediatrist scheduled the sweattest this Thursday and we can call
on Monday for the test results. The pediatrist appointment is 1,5 week later.
I'm very, very concerned and have lots of questions:
- Do you recognize the symptoms?
- Are there other parents on the forum with children diagnosed after the age of 2?
- How did you handle the uncertainty waiting for test results??? I don't sleep at all...
- How to handle emotions after a positive test result?
Thank you all for replying!!
