    Hypertonic Saline

    So far I like it pretty well. The first few days of using it I was coughing up chunks of stuff (I know nasty). It does burn the throat when first starting out. Now it's not so bad and I can do the full time my doctor prescribed. I find that I cough less throughout the day and I can speed up...

    Anyone for a new cup of tea?

    My favorite is peppermint tea. I grew up drinking it at my grandparents'. I guess it reminds me of coming in after a day of work on the ranch. My grandmother always had the stuff freshly made and iced by the time we got in. I also drink Moon Cycle tea from Yogi, whenever Aunt Flo is due to...

    cracked ribs

    I cracked my ribs a couple of years ago in a car accident. It was a very painful experience. Anyways, the doctor couldn't do much. He let me know not to make sudden movements (might turn the crack into a break and cause the rib to twist) and prescribed painkillers. I couldn't sleep on my...

    Honesty wanted

    I've been dating my guy for 2 1/2 years. Do I feel like he's not doing enough for me? Sometimes. But it has nothing to do with my CF. We're two very different people. I'm going to school and he works his rear off. When it comes to my health, he does what he can from making sure he knows...

    Bad Veins

    At the age of fifteen I could no longer handle a regular IV or picc line. The last time I had had a picc line the doctor had to cut into my arm and ended up causing damage. So I decided that my best bet was to get a port. After haveing the port put in, my veins started to get better within a...

    trouble finding clothing that fits?

    I'm 4'9" and between 95 and 100 lbs on my good days. When jean shopping I usually go for Levi's 518 stretch and short. They also have a slim fit as well. On sale they run between $25-$30. They last me about five years per pair so I consider it a good investment. If you need something...

    Goodbye, Holland

    That was beautifully written. Only someone who has been there can understand all the emotions behind it. I understand that the pain of leaving "Holland" will always be there. Hopefully, though you have learned that you had a love and a marriage that quite a few people these days only dream...

    I have a confession

    The post about getting rid of a body is true. You had gone to a friend's place for a visit. Now this friend has this annoying/disgusting habit of chewing on both his fingernails and toenails. The worst part is, he does it in front of company. Well while you were visiting he took off his...

    ok I don't want to start anything here...read if you like

    Personally, I don't think it's selfish to want to give your love to a child. A friend of mine came from very loving parents, they had no health problems. They raised their children with all the love and compassion they knew to show. My friend was the youngest with an older sister who was...

    Need to vent

    Aspergillus is a reaction caused by mold. It's one of the first things my current doctor tests for when I'm not feeling well because I react pretty badly. Usually, the reactions don't hit me right away. I just keep getting sick and nothing seems to help. One year I was in the hospital every...

    The whine thread.

    Here's my whine: I haven't seen my boyfriend since the Friday before Christmas. Work stationed him in Canada and I am attending a university in California. I just couldn't up and leave that easily. So I'm here till I get out for the summer and then it's on a plane I go.
