Something else to keep in mind is that your clinic might take in your old supplies you don't need anymore to give to someone else. I sometimes end up with extra Boost at the end of the month (I get a certain amt covered and delivered to my house) and I take it to my clinic to give to other people that can't afford it. They have told me they techically cannot say "Sure bring it in" due to legal issues, but if I HAPPEN to bring it in and they HAPPEN to give it to someone else, it's fine.

<Insert contamination disclaimer here> Yes, I know there is always a risk to doing something like that, but it's not any worse than going into the hospital if you wipe the item down sufficently. I personally like to help out, and it's nice to know someone is getting the stuff they need.

As for what my clinic has available, I think mostly samples of meds and things, and neb cups.

My clinic gives bills, very big bills that I hate to pay!

We don't get anything. If you ask you can get the sidestream neb (I think they actually bill for them).

The kids used to get candy for doing their PFT's but they even took that away since they didn't want to bribe w/candy. Well it worked for me and I'm 30. And do you see many obese CF kids running around. Didn't think so. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
