I on a blue moon, get bad sinus attacks, where my head gets full of pressure, my neck hurts and my front checks and forehead, as well as the front of my eyebrows and my front head really hurt . I don't get nausea or vertigo, but I get a sensitive to light and espically noise. I get so tried I...

Instead of using just a neti pot or simple sinus pot rinse, I used a sinus rinse machine, I have found it to be very effective in keeping my sinuses clear when done constant basis, whereas the net pot the solution just sits in the nose and ears. The sinus rinse machine pulses through the sinus...

I have had CFRD for about 8 years now, I started my first year on shots, and then moved to an insulin pump, and have been ever since. You really have to be educated and know what your doing with insulin in general, as well as the pump. The very basics is you match up food to insulin. You must...

Hahah! Oh my, never heard of that one before! (NEB) I have been on cruise ships plenty of times, but never had that issue. My problem is always power cords, or trying to plug in without tripping and throwing myself overboard in the process because the rooms can be small. If your stateroom has a...

Good luck, I sent you a PM, The treatment is hard, but you will feel better, I have been doing it for 13 months therapy, and this is my last month 14 total months of ALOT of pills, I will be glad to FINALLY take a break and the side effects. :)

Personally, you/ it don't look that bad (FART2) I have it much WORSE then you! Consider yourself lucky, I have 2 LARGE scars on my abdominal, it just looks beyond BAD. I gotta suck it in to. Try be sure your enzymes doses are good, and don't eat a lot of unnecessary JUNK fat. Try doing...

I too had ( have) the same issues,. 50% of it is to do with your enzymes doses and how food is affecting you, and the other 50% is antibiotic use trashing the flora in our gut. I stay away from heavy meats, high fat foods, no fast food, only little pizza/ only a little at a time! But...

Well, to answer your question directly, Yes, you will not absorb those calories , you will not absorb your fat and protein, but you will probably absorb some of the carbs from the pudding, but at the expensive of extreme pain, bathroom problems, and malnutrition, and stupidity.

Fad diets, yo-yo dieting, crash diets, anything in a pill, is terrible for anyone WITH-OUT cf, and a would be a disaster for a person with CF. 1200 calories for a person with CF is not enough by a long shot, and low even for a normal person. If your one of the lucky over weight CFers, I...

Just to say, I'm a salt freak. It really keeps my hydrated and makes me feel better, believe it or not. I am very liberal with salt, sprinkle it on everything, pretzels, cheese, anything. I drink Gatorade when I work out and take a couple salt tablets to. So obviously I lose alot of salt...

Why don't you split the salt dose in has applesauce? Little in the morning, afternoon and night,. Try give him salty snacks, little salt crackers or cheese slices sprinkle with salt, provided he can chew it ok. Just make it a little game, add some to his milk/ juice, You eat some salt and let...

"I promise to do some due diligence on my opinion that CFers need just the same amount of salt as the average healthy Joe" "Way above all electrolytes is WATER, people just aren’t paying attention to the amount of water we need. Salt makes you need more water." Electrolytes are mineral...

I have signed ! Thank you for posting this and rising awareness.

I signed the petition, I hope this poor baby gets her lungs, this is what happens when government and absurd SOCIALISTIC policies take over and the public has no say. I heard of a case of one child who couldn't get Kalydeco because she was only 2 years younger then the prescribed recommended...

I sent you PM baco, let me know if you get it.
