    how are your little ones teeth?tell me about your dentist trips

    sinus surgery

    I have had 2, and will get the third soon. I would definitely recommend a surgeon who uses the 3D/image guided endoscopic surgery. It allows them to be more thorough, and more careful in navigating the skull. Eric is right, chunks do come out after surgery. If I don't irrigate frequently, and...

    The hibiscus band on my ankle came first at age 18. Leo sign on my wrist is 2yrs old. The swallows on my ribcage are about a month old now. All have personal significance to me. <img src="http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c143/daniels8066/IMG_1269-1.jpg"> <img...

    Is medicine causing manic & depression episodes?

    On the topic of steroids, do most CF doctors recommend them as needed? One of my doctors puts me on them when I do antibiotic tune ups. But my CF clinic STRONGLY believes I should not be on them due to the development of osteoporosis. What is best with respect to CF????
