I am on it. I have been for about 3 years now. I started it to help regulate my periods and my horribly oily skin. So, yeah..so far so good. I'm on Yasmin.

OH GREAT! I have been using distilled water for a year now to wash out my sinuses with this pre-packaged sinus rinse stuff. My sinus Dr. told me to after my last surgery. Effin great!!  Seems like everything suggested to fix one part of this disease causes another even bigger problem...I AM SO...

oops, that was me.<br> <br> I just read your latest post and I am so glad for you that your getting better.

Hey there. Welcome!  Ok so this is something I can relate to so I'm going to post.<br> <br> <br> Growing up my parents did everything they could to keep me away from cig. smoke. When it was unavoidable it didn't seem to bother me as much as it does now. In HS/early college I was going to clubs...

I'm feeling a little saddened...I heard about it yesterday. I guess that means all new text books for science in the schools.<br> <br> <br> I miss Pluto..<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0">

ok...so this thread has officially left the building...and since my question was answered ohh...some 130 posts ago..I think it's time I go with it out that door. Plus, my head is spinning, because I cannot keep track of whose saying what....<br> <br> Thanks for all the great info and the sharing...

Seana, I agree....Having a child out of wedlock isn't "wrong" (whose to say what's right or wrong) and it <i>certainly</i> doesn't make you a bad parent. If it were wrong...my brother, whom I love dearly, might not be here today. Yes, he was an accidental pregnancy, but the world would not be...

Thank you to all who have given me helpful advice and not just judged me. I really appreciate the understanding (not necessarily agreeing) from those people. <br> <br> To those who have called me immature and told me I am not adult enough to make "adult decisions", I am sorry for whatever I may...

Thank you all who have given me good advice. I will be sure to consider everything when I am ready to have kids. I have always been a planner and this is the reason I even started this topic. It's not because I am not an "adult" and am recklessly trying to have a kids. Quite the contrary...I...

That was me...

I already said that I wouldn't want my child to have CF, hence the reason I said that I <i>hope</i> my BF isn't a carrier. I know I wouldn't want to have my child go through what I have been through. And I never said that I would have a child even if he is a carrier. I said I was unsure about...

Sue....yes I am soo exhausted..I am on week 2 now... and that's exactly what I meant Sue.<br> <br> It just another injustice created at the hands of CF and it sucks to have to give up so much. There is so much that "normal" people take for granted and we don't get to experience things the way...

I meant that I don't think I could handle having a child with CF because I think about all the time and energy went into having me and I wonder if I could physically handle it.<br> <br> Doesn't it make any  of you who say people with CF should not want to risk having children and passing on the...

Yeah, Allie.. you're right that you can love someone without your genetics...and I could get over the notion that I was never able to carry my own child, but I think a part of me would never really feel like he/she was totally mine.

Well, obviously we aren't going to have kids any time soon. But a bond with a child is important to me. The parents thing doesn't matter as much to me. I know my mom would accept my decision to adopt and I think my BF would too, but my BF has always dreamed of having his "own" son.

Well, I dunno.. I guess I don't feel like there would be as much of a connection as an adopted mom. I have an adopted cousin and there just seemed to be less of  a bond between him and his parents. I am the only girl in my family so, for me to have a child is a big deal me and my  mom. And my BF...

Well, thanks for the info girls...Gosh I hope I don't ever have to be faced with the dilemma.
