I had sprained my ankle and went to an emergicare to have it x-rayed. The lady doctor that I saw there was totally stunned when I said I had CF. She told me that was impossible - only males get CF and since I'm obviously not a guy, there was absolutely no way I could have CF. I was furious and...

Just to add my 2 cents...even if you did decide to be a member of the settlement group, like someone said before, you would probably get like 5 bucks or some infinitely small amount that would be of no big help to you financially. Also, unless you have had a problem with the Vest company, why...

I've had 1 cavity in my 30 years. And all my wisdom teeth pulled. Unfortantely I also have tetracycline staining on my teeth, so they're yellow/gray, but I don't think it's too noticeable on me. My dentist once told me that because alot of us CFers don't produce enzymes to digest food, there are...

I find this fascinating too. I'm the only one in my family with CF, but my Mom has asthma, bronchiectasis and chronic sinus problems. For years I told her she had CF, not asthma, because the steriods that are normally used to treat asthma never worked. She always got better with antibiotics...

I've had a collapsed lung twice. Both times from mediport placements. The first one was awful. They laid me flat and put me in a twilight and I started coughing, not even knowing I was. They started yelling at me to stop and I kinda woke up. They asked me if I was having trouble breathing and I...

Wow! We lived in Crimora which is just south on 340 from the Coors plant. We used to drive by it all the time to go to Harrisonburg. What a small world! Wish I could move back. Ha Ha Sean, that's what they say!

I have 4 or 5 indemnity policies through Mutual of Omaha and Physicians Mutual. Most of them did have pre-existing condition clauses on them that consisted of a waiting period of a year of so before benefits could be paid out to me for hospital stays. I've had them for so many years, I'm afraid...

I'm from Waynesboro, VA, which is about 30 min. west of Charlottesville in the Shenandoah Valley. My husband and I moved to Chattanooga, TN about 6 months ago and miss VA sooo much, we figure we'll move back eventually.
