    Coughing Up Blood After Prednisone

    Hi,<br>Here's the story. September 18th, I coughed up blood for the first time in recent memory. I was freaked out, and called my clinic the next morning, who prescribed me Septra/Augmentin oral abx (2 weeks) and a 6 day burst of Prednisone to stop the bleeding. I did, and it stopped, by...

    Tuneup Time?

    I recently moved from a smaller CF center to the UW Medical Center in Seattle. I've been on and off oral antibiotics since March, including multiple month or 2 week treatments of Cayston, and a ton of Septra, Augmentin, and then, recently, a Prednisone burst, then another one right now, all...

    Where do you tell people to look for CF info?

    When I tell my friends, I tell them NOT to Google it, because my CF is so much milder than the cases that come up on Google searches. I send them to CFF or even the Mayo Clinic site for an overview, and Wikipedia is good, too. I do agree that the CFF site is a bit too cheery, but it gives a...

    What to do on Prednisone

    Let's just start off with I feel for you. I hate, hate, hate being on Prednisone. I also get hot flashes; it also gives me horrible stomachaches but I'm still super hungry (it's really awesome...). And, worst yet, I turn into a huge b**** when I'm on it, not going to lie. I try to deal with it...

    Tobi + Avelox -- when should I start feeling better?

    I should think it will kick in pretty soon, the TOBI will hit your lungs immediately. I personally can't take Avelox (or Cipro or Levaquin, watch for joint pain), but when I used to take it, it would start to work within 2 or 3 days. Feel better!
