    Does anyone know if Kalydeco would work or can be tried on other mutation?

    In vitro studies have shown that it works on all gating mutations. It may also work on other mutations (specifically Class IV & V mutations) but studies have not been published.

    old doctor or young?

    I would prefer someone who reads journal articles and keeps up to date on research, regardless of age.

    Sterilizing nebs

    I use the Avent Iq24, but I paid like $60 for it...maybe they don't make it anymore? I also have a Nuk baby bottle sterilizer that was included with my first shipment of Cayston - that works too but the Avent holds more stuff. I think any steam baby bottle sterilizer would work.

    PLEASE READ - I really need help

    Alisha, I am so sorry you are dealing with this! I'm glad Jenny was able to give you some advice and I hope that helps, otherwise I agree with everyone that going to the ER associated with the CF center would be best. Thinking of you!

    Pulmozyne

    According to a quick search on Google and the prescribing information in my box of Pulmozyme, your OB is incorrect and it is a Pregnancy Category B. I would definitely take it during pregnancy.

    Ditto everyone Lauren - thank you so much for taking the time for participating in the trial. I so, so wish that you had not gotten placebo. And ditto Incomudrox - I have not heard of anyone with G551D who has had a difficult time getting the drug (in the US). There just aren't that many people...
