    Port Information for family members...

    Perhaps this post will seem a bit callous. I have always been a fiercely independent person and I do what I think is right regardless of what others think or say. I realize that a lot of people want to appease family members, but you are 27 years old. If you mum doesn't approve, well then...

    ABPA help

    I have heard that oral antifungals aren't effective in treating ABPA. The only reason they use them is to avoid fungal colonization elsewhere. I'll have to confirm this, though.

    Weed :(

    Another interesting fact: THC is a bronchodilator. It's not quite as fast as Albuterol, but it's a good medium-range range bronchodilator. As Twist said, vaporizers heat the air to a temperature that liberates the canniboids, but doesn't burn the leaves. The result is a good bit of THC, but...

    Dr can't figure out what's wrong. I'm an enigma

    If you do get a Dx of ABPA, ask about Xolair. It's a lot more friendly than steroids.

    Wireless Medical Devices

    That's interesting, and it's good that they are trying to bring about an awareness to address vulnerabilities. I can't help but wonder though, what's in it for the hackers? A target for black hat hackers would hold some significance, financial gain, disruption or harm to the parent company or...

    Pre-Teen Anger due to late diagnosis

    The thing that most us have going for us is that we were diagnosed as infants and have known no other way of life. I can't imagine how difficult it must be to get a diagnosis of CF in your teens. A few years ago, I was being treated with high-dose steroids for ABPA. I became insulin resistant...

    Daily Symptoms of CF

    One of the things that seems to make a difference with me is a proton pump inhibitor (like prilosec) in the morning, 20 mins before breakfast. The other is to cut out a lot of simple carbs. Sugars, high-starch foods etc. Other factors can make a difference, eating more slowly, for example...
