I live in So. California and there is no smoking in restaurants/bars here either. I work at a restaurant that has a pretty big bar with outside seating and people can smoke there. My managers know not to ever put me in an outside station because of the smoke.

I wear one too... I don't think there are any that look "cool" though. You can usually find brochures for them in doctor's offices or pharmacies; also try mecicalert.com

Huff coughs don't work for me... I get one huff out, and then my natural instict to cough kicks in

My fiancee has been very supportive of my CF. We have been living together for almost 3 years, sharing expenses and what not the whole time. We both work full time so when I would get sick and be out of work for a month at a time, he would pick up extra shifts at work in order for us to make...

I thankfully have never had any thoughts of suicide, or even depression....Sure I get down in the dumps sometimes, but its never anything that lasts very long. I have lived a very happy life and have had a great support system at home all my life. I get a little bit sad when I think that I...

could be signs of diabetes....also IV's are pretty much a way of life for a lot of CFers. If I were you, I wouldn't be so worried about them; instead I would get used to them.

or was it a bowl full of mucus?

I have a really big problem with my bladder, too!

I agree about the laughing thing... it's what annoys me the most about my CF. I enjoy a good belly laugh, but I just can't do it anymore (unless I'm fresh out of the hospital). I have to actually try not to laugh. I was telling my bridesmaids (I'm getting married in May) that I think I may...

You have a beautiful daughter! Congrats on the website, it looks great

Thats hillarious Dave!! I got a good one too...it was early in the morning and I let one go. It was seriously one of the biggest I can remember. My fiancee just opened his eyes and stared at me for a good 15 seconds before saying "That vibrated my foot!" I of course started laughing, which...

Wow, tell us how you really feel...LOL! I didn't watch it all that much either, but the ones I did see never showed her doing any treatments. Hmm, perhaps she never really did them, so that's why they didn't show it...

I had it when I was little....I think its basically when your rectum comes out of your anus. (Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong). My dad said that when I had it, he just touched it (as gross as that sounds) and it went back up. I don't know what causes it, though

Did you have the testing done at a CF center?

I was eight months old when I was diagnosed because of failure to thrive and the nasty poops. The docs kept telling my mom she wasn't feeding me enough and she laughed at them! I have never heard of meconium ilius, what is that?

1. I feel bad for my fiancee when he has to jump out of bed in the wee hours of the morning because I forgot to put my "booger bowl" by the side of the bed and I'm about to spew green stuff all over the bed during a coughing fit. 2. i come back from the grocery store with a trunk full of junk...

I'm a server at a restaurant...just applied to be a police dispatcher, though.

Danielle, what hospital do you go to? I live in Irvine and I go to Long Beach Memorial

Beautiful pictures!

I'm getting married in May and we want to start trying for a baby soon after. I understand how it's hard to get pregnant with CF, but I want to know if once you do get pregnant, is it hard to keep the baby full term as well? Is there a higher chance of losing the baby because of the CF? Also...
