    Minnesota Vest protocol vs standard vest protocol

    I've always done this vest technique. My family finds it a little funny, in fact, that the information for this type is on the Cincinnati Children's site, and when I was hospitalized there several years ago and used huffs between vest rounds, they were completely shocked and had never seen it...

    I Don't Understand

    During 10th grade, I was actually "asked" to leave my standardized testing room and given my own room to take the two weeks of test in my coughing was so bad. I try to not care too much about what other people think, but I care enough to excuse myself from a room if I know a coughing fit is...

    how often do you get sick?

    I used to be hospitalized every three months, like clockwork. For a couple years, the only clinic visits I would go to would be hospitalization follow-ups, and then a couple days before the real quarterly visit, I'd be back in the hospital and seeing my docs that way. Now, it's about every six...

    hospital stay vs. home iv's

    Just adding a note to say that I must be a very special person; I usually get more sleep in the hospital than I do at home. I sleep through all my IVs at night, and the blood draws in the morning. Usually, someone has to end up waking me up, or I'd easily spend all day sleeping. haha

    Personality

    I've found myself to be more distant, than cold. I'm nice to everyone I meet, until I have a reason to not be. It's hard for me to trust people enough to tell them, and it's because I lost some friends when I really started to get sick and in my mind, if the people I had known for 15 years...

    hospital stay vs. home iv's

    For me, it depends on how I feel when I'm admitted. There have been times when I have felt as sick as my PFTs showed, and those times I prefer to stay the entire two weeks. But when I feel good, even though my PFTs are down, I like doing the treatment at home. I know many of the nurses, docs...

    Teens and Meds

    I think it's just something a lot of CFs have to go through. It's hard growing up having to do all these treatments, and knowing that as you grow up, the probability that even more treatments will be added on. Add normal things people go through growing up and in some twisted way, wanting to...
