When I was diagnosed at 13, I was told that I wouldn't be able to get pregnant. I kinda wish I could "chat" with that dr now, because it isn't the smartest thing to tell a teenage girl- and I had my first baby 3 years later. Apparently not all CF women have major problems getting pregnant...

I have been married for almost 5 years and have 2 children (3 and 6, I carried both). My husband and I argue more about the housework not getting done and my "laziness" around the house more than anything else. I am in a CF slump right now, which means very low energy. Yes when we are mad at...

not sure what that last post was for....Anyways. I have this battle with dh. I get oily yucky crappy flakey hair and I start to break out (and I have larger pores so its pretty apparent). I have tried explaining its me being sick (or PMSing, whenever that happens) but he argues that I am not...

Lol I can completely relate. My husband gets bad gas sometimes too (we think he might be a bit lactose sensitive), but nothing compares to my "silent but deadly" ones. He tells me at least his make noise so I get fair warning. Mine are like chemical warfare- but its not all the time so I don't...

No g-button. I just can't do it. (no medical/physical reason- its all mental- Im stubborn). Im about 5ft and I hover around 100lbs. My target weight is about 120 though. My PFTs- I haven't had them done since October, but they were around 46% (FEV1). Probably a little lower since I am getting...

Sara I completely understand the peeing yourself. Hubby thinks its funny to play around and hold me down in the AM. He knows when I say "Im gonna pee on you" I probably am not kidding. And a coughing spasm when your sick....yep plan on changing panties! Also, I horrible smell when I use the...

Yes I do occasionally do Ensure or Carnation Instant Breakfast....are macademia nuts really that much better?

So, I need to gain weight. I don't really take a high dose of enzymes (Im on Zenpep 20's/ 2-3 w/meal). I am trying to switch to Ultresa as I have heard these are a bit better. My problem is I don't eat the calories I need. Before, I never really ate during the day. Apparently, I need to eat...

After the holidays, I think I am going on and setting up for a planned admission. I did two weeks of oral antibiotics and I think that it just wasn't enough. Guess I will need 2 weeks of IV therapy. Its been 6 months so I guess I am due.

@ maryiris...that almost makes me jealous lol but it is wonderful to hear. Unforuately, my husband expects me to do the vacuuming and laundry and questions/complains when its not done. Even when I am haveing a really bad day, I still have to be up in the morning to get my son on the bus and feed...

Thanks everyone. I am supposed to be going in after Christmas, so I think I will wait until then bring it up. I don't feel so bad now. I was really worried at first though.

It wasn't a lot. It was a few streaks, but I have NEVER seen blood in something i coughed up before (except for the times I have had a bloody nose then had a cross between a coughing attack and getting sick), so needless to say, I didn't know what to think. Im going to keep an eye on it though.
