adult diagnosis

[DarbSkull]

Welcome mmac. <br>

I was diagnosed at 29 and my twin sis was diagnosed at 30. It seems to me that if you are not diagnosed by your pediatrician you are going to have a hard time being diagnosed. I was told by two different docs that they didn't even consider CF because surely I would have been tested for that when I was a kid...<br>

Well, where do I start? First, I'm glad you found this site. You will be wonderfully pleased at the wealth of information all the members here have to share. You've already gotten a good sampling of that with some of the diagnosis stories that have been posted. Congratulations on being so physically fit. Although there really isn't such a thing as "mild" CF, there are mild stages of it. You are indeed blessed to have gone so long with what was, for all intents and purposes, a "normal" life.

I'm 27, diagnosed at birth. I'm an environmental scientist and a professional freelance writer. I do a lot of writing on the subject of CF. If you visit any of my blogs, you'll find links to things I've written. Being an adult with CF is a challenge, and in many ways, we have to educate a whole new generation of doctors about how to deal with us. We're all learning together.

I hope you'll avail yourself of the resources here. Also, here are links to my blogs:

All the best,
