A member asked:
If there was any chance my one year old had cf, our doctors would mention it, right? my suspicions are probably just paranoia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Consult: Standard newborn screening includes screening for cystic fibrosis (cf). This identifies the vast majority of infants with cf, but a missed diagnosis is possible. Talk to your pediatrician about your specific concerns. I hope everything is fine and your mind is put at ease.
