    Where do you tell people to look for CF info?

    I tell people to just ask me any questions that they have about it.  In the end I feel better of them getting the story and answers straight from me rather than googling, etc.  It can lead to some murky waters.  One site leads to one site leads to another.  I've never seen it end at just one...

    What is your FEV1 Score?

    At my last clinic visit last month I was at 62%.  I'm hoping to bring it up gradually to my baseline at 70%.  I haven't been that high in about 5 years.

    Oh! And some people assuming that my CF isn't as bad as others because I'm "not like those other sick kids who need to be in the hospital all the time".

    This post is so interesting! You guys have made me definately laugh over here because I have absolutely heard every one of those things!! I completely feel the same way. As many people on here know because I've posted before in other threads, I have liver cirrhosis related to the CF too as well...
