Hi Pam!
I'm Toni Sue and I just joined a couple of days ago too. Welcome! And, same as you - this is my first online support group experience. I hope we find this to be helpful and informative! Good Luck!

Hi My name is AnnMarie, and I just joined. This is my first online support group, ever, I joined to hopefully get more insight into this 'condition'. My 12 year old son was diagnosed when he was 6 years old after about 4 years of me fighting and begging with doctors to do more tests. I didn't want them to come back and say there was something more going on but I knew that there was. I hope we can be supportive to eachother and gain knowledge from eachother.
Best of luck, health and happiness to you all
AnnMarie

Hi AnnMarie:

Welcome :-)

It's a small group here but yes very supportive. Your son is lucky to have a mom like you :-)

Most of us don't find out until later since testing is not a regular thing for this disorder. Finding out early will likely prevent any lung damage or other complications for your son.

Again welcome,
K.

I am new here too. I looked at this a few years ago and it is good to see it is more active now. I am interested in hearing your stories and learning about new research and treatments.

Oh and my name is Coby and Im from Ok.

Hi Coby welcome :-)

Looking forward to hearing more from you.

Cheers,
K.

Hello everyone, I'm renee and I'm not sure if I should be here. My husband had iga as a child and now my 7 year old daughter is being tested for it. She takes a lot of medications for asthma and allergies and has a problem with low iron. We are supposed to hear back on the blood test next week.
