Bank holidays, own staff holidays (has assistants) even though you need to take care of our child Appreciate your thoughts Thanks

Thanks Melissa yes ou are right I do hope that an extreme case would have been diagnosed earlier Saffron, yes gp s wasted so many days taken off work to get her checked and they just say it s viral Unbelievable amount of time wasted And that not cheap, they could avevreferred us earlier even privately! Anyway we went away and got an opinion frm abroad and that helped, even he gp became more responsive to our concerns And referred us more easily I agree with you, I am old that in France even if the infection is initially viral it must be checked and an anti viral and anti biotic is prescribed cos it can be over infected if I am translating ths right Anyway, I would love to see some progress and get tests done, can't afford any more time off, Or I ll be looking for a new job :(

X-rays show consolidation and changes in both lungs She catches anything that is around and is whizzy and snores and coughs constantly I am hoping it's a virus and some good strong course of medication will cure it th trouble is we are going through this since last year and the only antibiotics we ever got were when we begged for them.... Clearly not right, when the dr says I can give you some if you really want! We wasted so much time with this and hope we r not missing the real diagnosis

Thank you all, daughter is 4 and yes she was tested at birth but it was negative, no known cases in the family, dad is very allergic, so I am hoping it is not Cf I can only hope it's just a missed pneumonia or even a weakened immune system. Having read about it it is not good at all. I sympathise with parents who have t cope with this.

Not sure if it's quite common to try to rule out CF in children, but my daughter has recurrent chest infection, changes in X-ray, and gp as usual has been reluctant to prescribe antibiotics, now we are referred to hospital, and getting CF done as advised by the specialist. I am trying not to freak out, but I am reading about it, and it just seems that she has most of the symptoms! Any similar experiences/ thoughts? thank you
