    Mycobacterium help

    I still take Zythromax. I mentioned the study to my doctor (and I wish I was listening with better ears that day) because he said that it only affected a VERY limited number of people - maybe even that it almost wasn't statistically significant....I'll have to ask him again what he said. I'll...

    Mycobacterium help

    Hey! So I had MAC when I was about 25 years old. My lung function decreased probably from 70 to 50% over the course of a year or two, I was always tired, my hair was falling out, I was losing weight. The doc couldn't figure out why tune-ups just didn't seem to be working, so they eventually...

    RT's refusing to do CPT

    Good advice, Peter! Another thing, at my hospital, they only assign ONE CF patient per shift to the RT, so they are NOT overly aching from having to do manual CPT on a bagillion patients in one day. I'm sorry, but manual CPT is part of the RT job - if you don't like it, don't be in RT line...

    RT's refusing to do CPT

    Absolutely agree. I have requested that certain RT's are not to service me b/c their CPT is not up to par. I have spoken to the respitory manager. I have complained to my doctor. The only thing you can do is advocate for yourself and keep speaking up and up until you get what you know you...

    for those who have yet to decide on transplant

    Hello! I am currently listed, but I remember when I was healthy always saying I would NEVER consider a transplant....but here I am. The deciding factor is I want to do ANYTHING to live. I have such a wonderful husband and life that I want to do anything I can to stay here as long as possible...
