I know it must drive everyone crazy because I always think to start my treatment right as someone puts in a movie. Then we have to put on the subtitles beacuse of my rattling!Farts....oh, farts! Two great ones! When I was like 8 1/2 months pregnant with my daughter, I not only had CF farts, but...

Cariann, I've recently finished a website addressing in detail most of the questions you asked. It is <A href="http://www.geocites.com/murrensnaturemama">www.geocites.com/murrensnaturemama</A> There is a lot of research about under what circumstances pregnancy is most likely to be healthy for...

for parents of teens I have spent hundreds of hours researching and compiling current and accurate research and information on the fertility, pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding and health of adults with CF into a website. This is a great resource for parents whose teens are going to be asking...

Depending on whtat it turned out to be, I may be interested. I could not put it in a totally visible place though.

I have two tattoos. The first is a black, tribal-style sunburst that I got when I was 18. I had always promised myself that when I moved out and was paying all my own bills I would get a tattoo. My parents didn't want me to get one, so I wanted to respect that while I was under their roof or on...

I wouldn't necessarily say that having CF is easier as an adult, but it is very different. For instance, I used to go in the hospital before every school semester at a minimum. I battled to keep weight on or gain weight. I was sick all the time, but pushed through it because I wanted to be in...

I am also one of those women. My daughter (CF free) is a little more than 2 1/2. We tried for a year and like Dea, decided it just wasn't meant to be, and then I found out I was pregnant a month later. I had no complications. My health was good and stable. My daughter was born at home 2 weeks...

As you probably know, I am working on a website for adults with CF who are interested in current, accurate information on fertility, pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding and parenting. I have my own stories written down, but I would really like to include stories from other adults about their...

My first thought is that it could be allergic. I have had allergic responses to several medications and they always began as an itchy hives-like rash. Mine are to Penicillins, Cephalosporins, and Heparin. My rash to heparin never covered my whole body at the beginning, it was always in isolated...

I concur! I went to one clinic when I went to college and then another when I went home. I've now moved and am being seen at the college clinic again. First time they saw me - they jumped all around and started all sorts of new meds and treatments and regimines and put me in the hospital...

I was 7 months old. They already suspected CF and my WAY over the high end (60 is definitely pos., I was 120-something) confirmed it definitively. No others were needed. Mine was performed at a major CF center - Children's in Dallas, TX

I am also a music teacher and I teach a similar age range to what you are looking at. I teach violin/viola/voice. I find that it is pretty easy to catch stuff. I have a great supplement that has really helped my immune system. I haven't caught a virus in over two years! Even from hubby - who is...

Hey, I need to get your email so I can try emailing you since you weren't able to email me.  Post it here if you don't mind, or you can IM me.IM: jaloughlin3

My first inclination is that your body is not well enough nourished. I used to be like that. Sleep 10-12 hours at night and take 2 naps of about 3 hours each every day. I was hardly ever awake. I now take a supplement that has helped turned that around. I have much more energy. I usually sleep...

Just for the sake of argument, when they do the standard test for carrying a CF gene, it is only about 70% accurate. My husband and I had the option offered to us numerous times, but decided not to test for the gene. We decided that our fertility was in God's hands and that if we did conceive...

Yes, you can breastfeed. It is true that if you have a deficit nutritionally, then your milk will reflect that, but there are many things that can be done to increase your vitamin and nutrient levels and therby increase the content of your milk. This should be done anyway, so that your health is...

>1/3 of women who get pregnant with CF becoming fatally ill due to the pregnancy<This is not statistically correct. I have several sources if you like. The best one is in Growing Older with CF -  a booklet carried by most CF clinics. It clearly states that pregnancy rarely negatively affects the...
