I would check out Dr. Seth Walker and the Emory Adult CF Center in Atlanta. We go to the Emory pediatric program, but they have a relationship with the adult clinic. He has spoken at some of our events and seems great! Very personable, knowledgeable, and cares a lot for his patients. The...

My daughter has gone to a private church preschool for the last 2.5 years. They will not administer any medications, and I knew that when I put her there. When I was researching schools, I found that most would not give her medicine, only a daycare would. Mostly we have managed because their...

Infiltrates are more common in CF kids. From what I understand, it can be a sign of infection which makes sense with what you describe. As for your list of questions: 1. The one time my daughter had pneumonia, she really didn't have a lot of symptoms. Tired, acted like a cold, but we knew it...

Sorry to hear that her diagnosis was confirmed. It is a very stressful time trying to figure everything out and take in so much information all at once. What you described is definitely in the range of normal CF infant care. Some clinics and doctors start children very young on preventative type...

My daughter is also 3.5 years old. We started her in a half day, two days a week school last year. She loved it!That made it a little easier for me to try and let go of my worries and let her out of her "bubble", if only a little. We gave the teacher a simplified explanation of what CF is and...
