    Pulmozyme Question

    dramamama - I'm really sorry for your experience, ESPECIALLY since the bronch exposed you to the mycobacterium. I'm sending you a PM too because I have some more questions. Your story also scares the crap out of me. This is one of those things where you are supposed to trust that the docs...

    Dumb ???

    The answers to your post are going to show the differences in the standards of care across the country, BUT they may also be because of differences in patient's mutations or severity/presence of symptoms? Or daughter is double DF508 and was diagnosed in August 2006. At her appointment last...

    Hypertonic Saline/Mucomyst/Pulmozyme....

    Renee, I just came from a "raving about HS" session today - my doc has put our almost 4 year old on it. We'll start it in the next few days, along with albuterol. She is currently also on Pulmozyme and TOBI 28 on/off. I've done lots of research on HS. I've heard about the coughing, the...

    Need some help from the believers today

    CF doc appointment went great, and I kept my head about me and was able to ask the questions that I already know the answers to, but I needed to hear the answers again from the doc. And I need to really, really believe the answers today, because I've got one foot in the hopeful, positive world...
