    Anyone have chronic pain?

    Does anyone have chronic pain, if so how do you manage it? I have chronic back pain for the last 15-20 years (since I was a teenager). I do have an S shape to my spine but no diagnosis of scoliosis. I have told multiple doctors, see a chiropractor, tried physical therapy and exercise but nothing...

    Menstrual Cycle

    I don't care if you posted before with the same or similar question. I think you should look into the Depo shot it will make your life less stressful. You get it once every three months and as long as you always follow through on time you just get one shot every three months. It has the same...

    Recovery time after sinus surgery

    How long did it take after surgery before you felt good to do everyday stuff, go out, and return to work. And by go out, I just mean going to the store and visiting family. Also did you have to stay overnight in the hospital, and did you feel like you could have went home that night?

    Sinus surgery?

    I just recently went to the ENT and I am going to have surgery in may. I am looking forward to it and kind of nervous too. My dad (not a cfer) had sinus surgery and had lots of complications so he doesn't want me to do it. I just want to feel better and not feel so crappy EVERY day.

    Who conceived naturally?

    My name is Dana, I am also trying to conceive but have not had success yet so I don't have any advice on that topic yet. What I do have some ideas are for the enzymes. I am 32 and have struggled for many years to remember them. The key for me was to finally have someone in my life that cared...

    Enzymes and Malabsorption?

    To start off, this is not a stupid question. I am a CF pt and a nurse so I have been on both sides of the spectrum. I have had issues at times with this sort of thing too. The shakiness could be due to low sugars and if you have had elevated sugars in the past that may idicate that you are...

    Thanks for everyone's replies. As far as my health and tune ups go. I have not been hospitalized since I was 13 months old. My last pft put me at 104% of the reference #'s.

    Just for fun but CF related - Real things doctors have said to me in the hospital

    When I was 23 I had not gone to the CF doctors for a few years because I had not have any insurance. I finally got a job with benefits, went back to the doctors but was too old for pediatrics and had to see the adult doctors. This doctor I have never seen before, looks at my X-rays and says to...

    how do you know when you need enzymes?

    As everyone said you need enzymes, nothing new, the doctor already called them in. All I can say is that for a couple of years I stopped taking my enzymes too but that was because I was stupid, took a break from college, and had no money or insurance for (?) three to four years. When I did get...
