I don't think a company can ask if you have a disability. I believe they can ask if there is anything that would prevent you from successfully completing the duties of the position you are applying for. My first interview after college I told the guy whom was interviewing me that I had CF, he...

I have tried everything from taking albuterol first to drinking something during the treatment to gargaling right after. I just hate Tobi. My Doctor normally does not put me on it unless he sees my FEV1 go down. But this time I volunteered to take it. The Pseudomonas grew in my culture my...
