    Nebulizer cup confusion

    The Pari cups are a good choice for pretty much any nebulized medication- Sprint were developed after the Pari LC's but work the same way, slightly faster. The regular sidestream cup is approved for pulmozyme when you have a 50psi compressor, so the sprint cups or the breath-enhanced Sidestream...

    Back in the hospital :'(

    Re. the autism and transplant... it may not even come down to being their decision. Many centers will disqualify someone from eligibility for transplant if they have other co-existing conditions like this. As wrong as it sounds, there was a recent case where CHOP denied a young girl from being...

    Sinus/Nasal Issues

    When Shawn had his sinus scope/exam last month, it did show considerable inflammation in the area immediately surrounding his nose (I can't remember the technical anatomical term) and one side was quite obstructed- he can barely breathe out of one nostril. However, his sinuses themselves are...

    Need for Better Searching capabilities

    You're right... Searching when selecting 'message' just gives you back a result with the message in expanded form vs. a list of topics. I hadn't realized we had lost the option to search both ways (topic vs message body.) A fully functional advanced search is definitely vital, we have such a...

    G tube options????

    Emily has had a button placed two ways. There is no stomach moving or reshaping in any way. The first way was endoscopically- the surgeon put the tube down the throat and pulled it through her stomach wall. This is exactly how the "long" PEG tubes are placed, but she had a button placed this...

    Amy, I'm curious to know as well if you will be getting a sweat test first as well to assess yourself on some kind of clinical level, get baseline pft's, weight etc at clinic.
