    Why doesn't it seem like doctors are super aggressive with sinuses?

    I wanted to share because I seem to be the exception to the norm here. While I did hva slots of sinus infections as a kid once I hit puberty they pretty much stopped. I had a sinus ct done once while still under the care of the peds team and it was normal, no polyps. Since then I've had no sinus...

    Pain Question

    Just curious but have you or your doctors ever considered checking if it might be something like Fibromyalgia? I know it's not CF related but it does cause widespread pain like you described. I personally don't know very much about it but it might be something to look into if seeing a...

    pre-trans quality of life

    Jason, right now my iv treatments lasts 1-3 weeks depending how soon I start after I start feeling bad. They don't really base it on my pft numbers anymore (which range 18-23) because at this point the little bit of difference is small enough to be within the computer margin of error. What we...

    Hey Jason, I have been listed for 10 months now and when I was first listed I was mostly just having trouble walking long distances and I avoided stairs at all costs. At that point I was only using oxygen at night but a few weeks after being listed my docs put me on it full time. I also found...
