secretions
- Question
- I am 40 years old and since some time I have many secretions in the morning. Sometimes I vomit and my intestines seem to be very sensitive. Could this be Cystic Fibrosis ?
- Answer
- Dear Ecorn-user,
For specific complaints about yourself, you of course need to go and see your doctor.
When you ask what symptoms could point towards cystic fibrosis at the age of 40 years we tell you that CF can manifest itself by symptoms in the airways, the gut, problems with salt loss or fertility. Often these symptoms can occur in various combinations. As such the combination of problems in the airways and vomiting or ‘sensitive intestines’ is one of the possible combinations. But of course these symptoms can also be a consequence of for instance severe gastro-oesofagal reflux or allergy or disorders of the immunity (immunodeficiencies) and others. So for your complaints you need to go and see your doctor.
