Here is what I do at 51 yrs of age (DD f508): High intensity interval training, 2-3 days per week, 10-20 minutes max. (the good news about this is that "high intensity" is subjective...go as hard as you can, safely--if this means wear an O2 sat device or even use O2, so be it). Weight training...

LFP: I have lost both a sister (Kathy) and a brother (Tom) to CF. I am the last of the three of seven kids in our family with CF. I know exactly what you are feeling. It is sad and scary and it probably seems like no one else can possibly understand. I do. There is no describing the feeling...

I would definitely look into ABPA (allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis). To do this, they look at your IgE levels (sky high in ABPA) and specific IgG antibodies to aspergillus. I had ABPA and when it is active, it really leads to shortness of breath. Tell your doctor you need to have this...
