I have been told that, that is a medical myth. I asked my Dr., resp. therapist, and others if that was a possibility and they all said no. If your sats are indicating your body needs O2 supplementation, and you use it as the doctor prescribes, you'll only help your body, not make it dependent.

I felt better the first night after I started using O2 at night. I woke up feeling more alive than I could ever recall, it was incredible! When I started O2, it was to be used at night and then during the day if needed. It was about 2 1/2 years after I started using it that I became totally...

I was scared when I first had to start using O2, I thought it was the beginning of the end. It wasn't. I didn't think I really needed it, but like Havoc said, it was such a night & day difference, because things change slowly and we don't notice it as much. I felt so much better, I couldn't...

I've enjoyed Jon Bon Jovi's It's My Life, particularly when it comes to dealing with some medical personnel;)

I was tested for allergies, and found I was highly allergic to cats. I have 3, not necessarily by choice the 3rd was a stray that joined the family, he climbed into my car on a rainy day and then into my heart. (I know that sounds cheesy<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif"...

I have had many dreams where I experience dying from CF and obviously the process isn't pleasant. Like many have said, to have a fear of it is natural. We all do to one extent or another. I do not fear what happens after death, but just the process as my body dies. I am religious. I have...

I'm glad your husband is doing well. I don't know if I can answer all your questions. If he comes to the U.S. you would want to get insurance coverage as soon as possible. Insurance in the United States is usually provided by employers, you pay co-pays, and usually a percentage of the...

I wanted to be tested to be in the registry, but they said since I have CF I don't qualify, because if I was a match the donation procedure could do me harm. I hope she finds a successful donor.
