    Pulmo and HS

    Yeah, Caitlin. I think you're right about that. The puffer isn't quite as effective and takes longer to kick in. Why are you on the puffer, though, vs the nebulizer? Why? I use the inhaler if I need to, but my doc would NEVER advise me to use the puffer over the neb for treatments!!! Jenny

    Pulmo and HS

    Hi Caitlin, I take the Albuterol neb solution, HS, and Pulmozyme twice a day. I do the Albuterol solution, then the HS, then the vest, then the Pulmozyme. I don't do anything at the same time. Also, I don't take breaks or wait 10-15 minutes between any of them. I'm not saying that's right...

    Sonia... I wanted to ask - What was your lowest BS ever? Mine was 32. I was sick in the hospital sleeping. Luckly, a nurse awoke me at 6:00 am for a BS. She flew out of the room so fast and returned with 4 containers of OJ. I must admit that was the deepest sleep of my life. I was out. I...

    Hey Sonia, We have more in common than we think! LOL! The pills, like I said, did nothing for me. They had me stop them and then repeated the A1C. That is when it had come down to 5.7. At one point, it even dropped to 5.1. Then 1.5 years ago, it went back up to 5.7. And now, 5.8. I too...

    Sonia, Those numbers that you presented from the National Institute of Health are close to the ones I was instructed. But again, I think too that they are more directed towards a "normal person" not someone with CF. In think that is where the lab went wrong. They know I have CF but didn't...

    Breast enlargement?

    I too having considered getting implants. I'm 4'11" and weigh in at 115 pounds. I have curves everywhere except for my chest. I'm a 34A. For me, I'm unportioned if that makes any sense. I use to and still do buy extra padded bras and wear lots of sweatshirts and things that you won't notice...
