Hi - my son has had a significant repiratory condition for the past 5 years. Until recently it was considered to be cryptic/ obese hypo-ventilation syndrome (despite his BMI being only overweight. Recent CT scans indicate it may actually be Hystiocytosis. Can anyone recommend a specialist in this area ? In either Ireland or UK
