    my hypothesis on the mechanism behind the clubbing of fingers

    I see your point & even Dr's sometimes think clubbing is tied to lung function, but I disagree. I had very good lung function until my late 20s, but always had clubbing. I was watching <i>Dr G Medical Examiner </i>one night & one of her cases had finger clubbing and she tied the clubbing to...

    cholesterol issues and CF?

    I'll preface this by saying that I am "old school" concerning diet. I'm sure enzymes these days are much better then what I had as a kid. You do what you & your Dr have decided. I am one that squeezes bacon, hamburgers, fried chicken, etc. with paper towels before I eat them. I could not...

    Approved For SSDI

    Jennifer, did you have to update your diagnosis code with them? It may be a good idea to let them know you don't have confirmed CF (if you haven't already) in case it may come back to bite you in the butt later. As for back-pay, I'm thinking they will only go back one year? Anyone else know the...
