    zythromax ?

    When I first started it, I saw that easily. Taking it Mon, Wed, and Fri, by the time Sunday night rolled around, I was starting to get sicker again, then Monday night when I'd take the next Zithro, I'd feel better pretty quickly. The thing that makes it obvious is because during the week...

    Relationships - need advice

    Hi hi. I have some of the same problems. I've dated ever since I was 14,15, but I've always had a huge self confidence issue. And yes, some people will turn you away because of the CF. I've had guys seem interested, and after they found out I was sick, they backed off big time. But if people do...

    Need info on pulmozyme

    Ahh yes. I'm a 20/f w/CF. I've been on Pulmozyme since it first came out. I think... 11 years ago? I think I was 9, I forget. Anyhow, I've been taking it once a day every day for 11-some-odd years now. I love it. I mean, obviously, it's a pain in the ass to do the stuff every single day, but...

    zythromax ?

    I'm taking Zithromax 3 times a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday), and have been since December 2002. I believe it's the 500mg dosage. It seemed to help a lot at first, and I think it still is, but as time goes by, I get worse. So though it gets harder, I think the Zithromax is still keeping a...

    Bowel Surgery

    I had that exact problem. I am 20 now, but was born, and after two days, had not passed the meconium. They made an incision on my stomach, from the belly button over to one side, basically. It's not that bad. It's a pretty smooth scar, and though it stretched as I grew, it's not that big of a...

    I want a baby w/o Cf

    You need to be tested. If you are not a carrier, there is no way the child would end up with CF. The child may still be a carrier, but would not have CF. But as others have said, sorry to say, most CF men are sterile. I know the general feeling. I have CF, and though not male, have had a...
