CGD signs and symptoms

The body will show signs and symptoms of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) in a variety of ways, sometimes as pneumonia or gastrointestinal (GI) issues.

For people living with CGD, there are certain cells in their body that are not able to do their job the right way and fight off infections. Without that protection, the body is more likely to get infections, which can be serious* and life-threatening.

*An infection is serious if you have to go to the hospital and/or get intravenous (IV) antibiotics.

CGD can affect multiple parts of the body:

Additional Symptoms

X-linked carriers can experience many of these symptoms, which can progress over time. Carriers can also get infections, just like their children with CGD. Carrier symptoms can sometimes be mistaken for lupus since that condition affects the immune system as well. If an X-linked carrier is experiencing any of these symptoms, make note of them and talk to a doctor.
