I get really bad sinus infections a lot, and I currently have one right now. I went to the CF center yesterday and was hoping my doctor would give me something for it, but she didn't.

Hey everyone, I was diagnosed a few months ago w/ CF and I have just started using TOBI a few weeks ago. I was curious to see if anyone else experienced hoarseness, or loss of voice as a side effect? If so, I was also wondering how long it lasts for? I coach a swim team, and it's hard to talk...
