Without alarming anyone, but wanting to ensure all the boxes are ticked, it is worth noting that repeated chest infections can also be a sign of other problems, such as Cystic Fibrosis. Even though the heel ***** test may have returned an all clear for CF, it is important to understand that it only tests for the 40 most common varitations whereas there are over 1400 known. If in doubt, insist your Doctor have your child tested again.

Interesting fact: before testing for CF was invented, midwives would lick a babies skin after birth. If it was salty, the midwife would hand the baby to the mother and tell her to go home and love it because it would pass away soon. Thank god for modern medicine, people with CF can now live a long healthy life.
