Greeting to all! It's been a while since I've posted anything and that's good~ means things are normal for our Grayson. Yesterday he had his 3 month check-up with his Cystic Fibrosis doctor and for the most part Dr. Black was pleased. There is a little concern that he hasn't put on any weight since his last visit, 3 months ago, so his enzymes may be increased so that he is able to absorb a little more fat on his next visit in December if unchanged.
We got the results of his genetic testing and he does have a mutated CF gene with numbers and letters. To us it really meant nothing, but Dr. Black said that this number will be important for future discoveries of treatments. Grayson's CF gene is in the "middle of the road", as Dr. Black put it, meaning his CF isn't more pancreatic than lung or vica versa, which is good per Dr. Black.
Dr. Black was concerned also with Grayson's cough, so a sputum culture was done and we should have the results of that in a few days. The results of this may promote another round of antibiotics to get him cleared up. With CF, it is very important to treat any potential problems as soon as possible to avoid it turning into something serious.
Grayson is doing very well in Kindergarten and seems to have adjusted nicely with his new routine. Everyone at the school is so helpful with keeping an extra eye on him and seeing that he gets his med's on time.
Thank you for your continued thoughts and prayers for us all!
