hi, question   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #765 of 1698 |

Hi, I was wondering. My four year old son has allergies and gets
hives, has a cough often, sometimes to the point of throwing up. I
know he is allergic to dust but he also has salty tasting sweat and
he quite often has light colored stool. I am thinking that maybe he
has cystic fibrosis. What should I do now? He is a very good size,
not undernourished. Please help. I am confused.

Also, those of you with CF? Have you tried eliminating the five most
allergenic foods in the US? Wheat, corn, milk, tomatoes, and eggs?
Some of the symptoms of CF seem to mimic Celiac Disease. Have any of
you ever tried the Gerson therapy? (diet). I know they say CF is a
genetic disease, but perhaps what people are getting is a genetic
intolerance of certain foods.

Please respond about my son. If you can let me know the main symptoms
I can see if he has them. Thank you, Kelly in Pa.
