Adding to the original lungs question...

[serendipity730]

Not long ago, someone posted asking if there was anyone over 35 with their "original lungs," so I have 2 questions for those with their original lungs over 35. Were any of you diagnosed within the first 4 years of life? Also, how much lung function did you lose between 25 and 35? Thanks!

Diagnosed at birth. Lung function great until 43.

I was diagnosed when I was 6 months old. Like the previous poster - my lungs were good until about 42/43. I still have my "original" lungs.

Diagnosed at 19, misdiagnosed for many years.... I lost about 20% of my lung function between 25 and 35.

I was diagnosed at 3 years old. lung function was in the high 90's till i got b.cepacia around the age of 32 . Then it went slowly down over the years. I'm now in the 40's range, and intend on staying there forever unless they find a way to help me raise it....lol
