I took my daughter in to get her tested today. She is two and she acted like it was the most tramatic thing she has ever been through. I would understand how she acted if she was older and actually knew what she was being tested for but she's had no clue. I was her age when I was tested so I don't remember what it feels like but I asked my sister about the testing because she was tested two years ago and she said it didn't even make her uncomfortable. April, my daughter, cried throught the whole thing. I thought she wouldn't mind so much since she would get to where "bracelets", jewlery is one of her favorite things, no such luck there. They said we should have the results later this afternoon. I 'm praying for good news. Has the sweat test been painful or uncomfortable for anyone else? I felt like a mean parent walking around the waiting area with a screaming child for half an hour waiting for her to sweat enough to get tested. Her being worked up probably made the process go alot faster because she was so warm the whole time.

Colleen got retested at about 1 1/2 years old - she cried throughout! I don't think the test is that painful, but she's just at an age where any test/medical interaction will make her cry. (Coll got out of the doctor office crying phase at around 3 - just as her doctor predicted!).

Regardless, best of luck - I hope the results are negative!
