    Commercial!

    i'm not sure but I might have been that girl on livejournal. I went to the opera recently and the program said "silence sponsored by [some brand of cough drops]."

    Am i? ... ... ...

    2004 feels like a decade ago. When this topic came up I looked at the posts I made when the San Diego season began. What a trip down memory lane. Anyway Frankie, I'm glad you're ok and that you're here. scarlett 22 w/ cf

    May Sound Like a Stupid Question...BUT...

    I was 5 too! I don't remember it but I do remember watching this movie in health class in 7th grade about genetics where this woman's son had cf and the woman described how he sister called her and was like, THEY FOUND THE GENE. Sorry, that was so irrelevant.

    especially for women

    I've been away from this board for a year and am so impressed and delighted with how this topic has grown!! As it says in my first post, I started this thread because I had this dream that there could be a place online for specific problems faced by women with cf. Then real life intervened, and...

    living in denial

    Anonymous, this is kind of spooky. I am also twenty, also with cf, also got diabetes at 14, and also have/had an eating disorder. Plus I've also tried loads of antidepressants and have been semi-suicidal at times. I am not a model in compliance and a lot of the time there really seems to be no...

    Accordant?

    Hi, does anyone else have Blue Cross and participate in the Accordant program? I do and the newsletters they send out are by far the stupidest things I have ever read. And I thought they'd be helpful . . . sorry, just needed a quick vent.

    Fish oils and CF

    Caroline, did you read the article in the Boston globe? My mom has been pressing me to take fish oil for a long time and even more so lately. I find the capsules really gross. I do try to eat a lot of fish as it's supposed to be really good for your skin, according to Dr. Perricone.

    Comments on Real World cast memeber.

    I wish I could shut up about this one, because I think poor Frankie has been judged and psychoanalyzed <i>ad infinitum </i>. But after seeing the first 3 episodes of this season and consistently reading a few different boards where the Frankie and CF debate rages on, I have some ideas. 1) Some...

    Comments on Real World cast memeber.

    to the person two posts down: what do you mean?It's fascinating to see the *normal* people on real world message boards argue about this. Actually, it's pretty sad and ridiculous. Most of them see Frankie as selfish and manipulative, and they are all over her for telling her housemates about her...

    Humalog Pens

    I have humalog pens . . . and humulin pens . . . and 75/25 pens. So yes, they exist. I heard they were recalled too but have never had a problem getting them from my pharmacy.

    especially for women

    CFRD is not the same as type I diabetes . . . but of course no one bothered to tell me this. I think it's important to know, however. A lot of endocrinologists don't know much about it. It's less complicated and hard-core medically, but in my experience, it gets really complicated when your...

    Dating?! I need some advice fast!!!

    kiss away! CF isn't contagious and so you won't catch it. However, and people please correct me if I'm wrong here, you may want to stay away from him if you have the cold or flu cause if he catches that from you, it could be really problematic. If you are trying to find out stuff about the...

    CF respondsibility

    My parents did not know they carried the CF gene before I was diagnosed, and I hope that if they'd known they would still have had me. My life sucks a lot of the time (especially lately), but it is so good a lot of the time, and I am glad that I exist. I wouldn't be me without cf, and yes...

    especially for women

    Thanks to everyone who advised me about my little professor issue. I finally registered with the office of disability services at school, so now I have all these letters to give to my teachers. All they say are "she has registered with this office and so she is allowed to stagger assignments...
