I'm already on O2 at night and on IVs for an infection. Last time I went to the doc was about 3 weeks ago and had a needle change/labs done for my port yesterday. Thanks for the advice, but I'm just venting about being out of breath and feeling uncomfortable about it, and wondering if others...

My questions are the same as Jonathan's. Are these IVs just "standard" abx that you're usually on when on IVs? I got to a point one time where the normal IVs that did the trick weren't making me better. A longer, more specific culture revealed a new bug that was resistant to all but one of these...

thanks, all! Your replies make me feel less alone. I was worried I was going to get a bunch of "You're being silly" type replies. It's so stupid that we feel this way, but it's also hard not to! And don't even get me started on the "What a cough! You'd better quit smoking!" comments, lol. I get...

Hey guys!   So, my lung function is actually pretty crappy. My last pft was in the upper 30s and that was a long time ago. I'm on SSDI and only working part time while I go to school. Things have been getting really tough for me as of late. On days I work, I'm exhausted after a 6 hour shift. I...

I am so saddened by this news. I feel for Liza and the rest of the family and pray that they make it through this horrible time. Rest in peace and breathe easy now, Anna. <img src="i/expressions/rose.gif" border="0">

Alright, I'm going to be the idiot here. What is bronchiectasis? I looked it up and I don't understand how it's any different than CF and classic scar tissue build up with chronic infections? Is it just a name for the scar tissue development due to chronic infections? Are there symptoms with...

Cleveland is still cold, lol. At least it's stopped snowing, though. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"> I know how you feel. Prednisone helps me breathe so much easier but it wreaks havoc on EVERYTHING else. I agree with you about the bad outweighing the good...
