Hello, I am a final year student attending my first paediatric placement in a large state hospital in NSW. From those of you who have experience in this area, what conditions should I expect to see? I'm thinking some of the main ones will be cerebral palsy and cystic fibrosis, as well as orthopaedic. Any advice regarding conditions or prep material would be greatly appreciated!

2024.05.22 02:15 Impossible-Ad3 Chance a worried HS sophomore hoping to get into Stanford or other t10 unis
Hi, I am a sophomore in high school and am wondering if I am on track to get into a t10 university for premed (bio, neuro, or biochem). I am worried because of my relatively low UW gpa and because most asian males who get admitted to t10 unis usually have 4.0s while I will have a 3.89 when applying. This is not a shitpost š
Demographics: Asian male, no hooks
Household income: 400k+, going to pay full tuition
UW/W gpa: 3.89/5.45 top 10% of graduating class (expected when applying to college)
ECs:
USABO semifinalist
HOSA ILC Qualifier
Presidential Volunteer Service Award Gold
Am I on track to get into a t10 university? Stanford, Duke, or UPenn is the dream but I would love UC Berkeley or UCLA.
I am mainly concerned regarding my UW gpa and my awards so far. I was also wondering if a 1550+ SAT score will help make up for my relatively low UW gpa. I would greatly appreciate any advice on what I should focus on and try accomplishing in the summer. Thank you so much in advance for the advice!

2024.05.21 23:42 princess-peach69 newborn screening positive for cystic fibrosis
Not looking for true medical advice just curious to hear otherās experiences. We have a ped appt tomorrow.
I just had my 2nd baby and the pediatrician called to let us know one of her newborn screening results came back elevated for cystic fibrosis. They told me this could just be a false positive, and they are retesting her. However my MIL has 2 cousins with CF. Our son did not have any results indicating CF on his newborn screening. I am trying to stay hopeful that itās a false positive.
Just curious if this has happened to anyone else and what the next steps looked like or if you dealt with a false positive?

2024.05.21 09:09 Awesomesauceme Dos and Donts of writing Cystic Fibrosis?
I'm writing a post-apocalyptic novel where one of the characters has CF. I'm on draft two right now, but I'm planning on getting sensitivity readers after the third draft to make sure I'm portraying the condition well. For now, though, I figured it would be a good idea to ask preemptively what you would look for in a portrayal of CF, and what you would hate seeing. I would hate to portray the condition inaccurately or to perpetuate pre-existing stereotypes and stigma.

2024.05.21 00:42 NoSimple1637 Searching for surrogate in NJ
Hello all. I am 48 and living with the genetic lung disease cystic fibrosis, which also renders 98% of males infertile due to bilateral absence of the vas deferens. Next month I am having sperm retrieval surgery. However my partner is not only 53, but has poly cystic ovaries. So we have decided to pursue surrogacy.
I have always wanted multiple children, but given the costs and challenges, I would not pursue this without the right person. Unfortunately that person came later in life, but just as I never gave up hope on living successfully with CF, I have never given up hope on being a father.
Any suggestions, contacts, referrals or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

2024.05.20 21:49 Admirable-Cookie-572 36(F) Seeking Feedback/Info On Adopting A Child
I am 36(F) with Cystic Fibrosis and my husband is 45 and is also a carrier. Prior to finding out he was a carrier we had tried to have a child naturally. I have had 2 chemical pregnancies and no luck since then. IVF is so expensive with not a 100% guarantee so we've opted to not go that route but it just eats at me.
As of late, I'm starting to get upset daily and silently that I don't have any children. Part of me says just carry on in life without any and be content with my husband and 4 pets. But I'm also starting to feel terrible that I haven't been able to continue my husbands lineage and desire to have a child of his own biologically.
Another part of me wants to adopt and raise a child that needs a home/loving family and I've been trying to research adoption but it's so overwhelming. Has anyone here adopted? What was your experience? Does it fill the hole in your heart you feel is missing? How do you know it's right for you? How do you make that leap?

2024.05.20 19:40 nokap4 Chronic Sinusitis and Atypical CF
Hi everyone!
I recently have had a flare up with my ears (ear infection for 5 months), and I am going in for further testing with my ENT which is likely to come back with nothing....would it be ridiculous to ask him to refer me to a doctor who could test me for atypical cystic fibrosis? I am nervous to bring it up because I only recently did some research on it, and I don't know if I fit the description. I am Ashkenazi Jewish (I read that could play a role?) and I've had these problems my entire life, but I understand CF is a very serious condition, and it's never been brought up to me by any doctor so I am hesitant.
For context, I am 25 and have been struggling my entire life with chronic sinusitis/chronic bronchitis/ear infections, etc. I've been to over 10+ doctors and specialists who say I just struggle from "allergies" and that the only route is antibiotics, surgery, or just "dealing with it". I've tried to go the holistic route, done surgery, rounds of antibiotics, lifestyle changes....but I still really struggle with getting sick/feeling healthy on a day-to-day basis. I really don't believe that it's just allergies...particularly since I've had multiple allergy tests come back negative, I'm constantly on allergy medication, and I am susceptible to respiratory illnesses (like pneumonia). I also have Mild GERD. My mom has similar issues with her sinuses, but no doctor has ever been able to answer "why" because our blood tests come back fine....
I'm managing the best I can now (I'm used to it) but am seriously concerned for my health in the long term, so any help or advice is greatly appreciated!

2024.05.20 19:31 Rescue_momma Waiting on genetic carrier results
My husband and I recently decided weāre ready to TTC. However, I have cystic fibrosis. We are awaiting my husbandās genetic carrier results, to see if heās a CF gene carrier. If he is then we have a 50% of having a baby with CF. If thatās the case, weāve both decided that we will not proceed with TTC naturally (it would be too risky for my health to have a child with CF).
As long as his results come back clear weāre going to start TTC immediately. All that being said, Iām in a weird place emotionally. Iām so excited to have started this journey, but I donāt want to get my hopes up until the results come back in 2-3 weeks. Anyone else going through this or have tips for stress reduction while we wait?

My mom told me that women will see me as a half a man because of my inability to work (cystic fibrosis). We were talking about me dating and how I was struggling to find someone... the revolting part is she was right
