    Airway clearance from exercise

    I usually do not cough during exercise, it's afterwards when it hits me. If I do hard-core exercise, I usually have huge cough attacks when I get settled down. I think static had a good point that during exercise you are more focused on the exercise and the adrenaline is pumping, which...

    How often do you get lung scans?

    Hi there, I believe the protocol in the US for most CF centers is to get a chest x-ray once a year.

    I forgot my eFlow and I'm on vacation!

    Thanks everyone for the great replies! IV Solutions was not able to give me a loaner eFlow. I had no idea they were at CVS & Walgreens (thanks Lauren!). I am due for my insurance to cover a new machine, so I should be able to get one for free. Thank you all!

    Culture "BUG" Grew

    Culture Hi there, I cultured steno for the first time last year. The doctor didn't seem too concerned and we did not change my treatment regimen at all. From the research I have done online, it seems that it can be harmful to CFers on the level like staph, although I haven't had any issues...

    can HTS be used in the eFlow?

    Thanks for the advice. I figured it was ok (I've seen that you can order the Rx for HTS through the eFlow pharmacy). Plus, I don't think it can hurt if you get ultra-concentrated HTS - in fact, it's probably better <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
