Could someone tell me the name of the CFF clinic here in Austin? I just moved here from Iowa and need to establish care. Thanks! LIsa

I sent you a friend request and will follow you on instragram too (once I figure it out a little bit better!)

I would love to be involved also - I am a 36 year old female - I live in Iowa! I think you project is a wonderful idea. Your pictures are amazing also! :)

I started on Actigall when I was in 5th or 6th grade. My spleen was also enlarged, but remained largely unaffected symptom-wise until I was about 25 when I would always get ascites and multiple other issues which landed me in the hospital quite a lot. Also, when I got in college had regular...

I am 35 and I have a barrel chest also - I find it a problem when trying to buy dresses - I was recently a bridesmaid and had to buy a size 16 dress, when my normal size, like for jeans, is 6! Sometimes bras are hard to find too to be big enough around but not too huge in the cup! I don't know...

My CFRD is controlled with insulin and always has been since I was diagnosed at age 16. I switched to the pump in 2008 and makes it so much more convenient - I would never go back to injections. I do monitor my blood sugars 3-4 times per day. A1C is 6.1 as of last week!

This may seem kind of odd, but I was wondering if anyone has dark spots on their legs. The skin around my ankles started turning a very dark gray, almost black color about 10 years ago (I am 34 now). Since then, it has progressed and know pretty much from the knees down, the skin appears...

No, I still have my lungs!I guess my CF affected my liver more than my lungs. When I was little (birth to 12 or 13 or so) I got pneumonia a lot. Then they were ok until the liver transplant. I wouldn't say they are worse <em>because</em> of the transplant, it's just that I get a lot more...
