    Sharing funny CF-related stories

    As a kid growing up in Vermont, downhill skiing was nearly a religious practice. All my friends and I would go skiing every weekend. The chairlift rides to the top were long and boring, and so we'd find ways to kill the time. Being boys, spitting was also a great pastime. So it got to a...

    exercise and the heat

    I've used salt tablets when exercising in this insane FL heat - they work ok. I drink a lot of gatorade, but I definitely prefer the smartwater when I can find it (too much sugar in G). At the risk of sounding obvious, the problem with just giving water is the concern of "water intoxication"...

    Scuba and transplant

    I can't answer your question, in fact, I have the same one, minus the transplant. I did scuba when I was a teenager, but as I got older my doc said not to risk it. Sometimes at the beginning of the summer, just swimming at the bottom of the pool would cause a little hemoptysis, but it would go...

    What to bring to hospital

    Sorry to hear. I guess I can only add Scrubs Baby powder Earplugs Ask them to make sure they get you the most comfortable bed. In FL they have 2-3 types; one of them is a really nice tempurpedic mattress, the others are horrible blow up types that make a terrible racket and destroy my back.

    Hey all, Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself.  I've never been on a CF board, hell, I haven't even talked to another CFer since way back at CF camp in the 80's.  I've been pretty lame and avoided CF events fundraisers and etc.  I started thinking I ought to be more involved and that it...
