    Throat Cultures

    I would call before your next clinic appt and ask about getting the sputum culture taken first thing next time- just to get it over with and see if the rest of the appt goes smoother that way. It needs to be done, but the anticipation is worse than the deed. <img...

    Cf with no mutations?

    First of all, I am glad you have a dr that is looking into this so thoroughly. Your son clearly needs this, no matter what's going on with him. All too often we see drs that brush off a severe dx and then a parent is left with a child that is STILL very ill and left with no tools with which to...

    PINK vest

    The shoulders do lie flat, but the upper back inflates much more on the new washable one- I think because it's not trying to inflate over the curve of the shoulder so can concentrate the force on the back where it should be. It inflates all the way up the chest, but I do wish it was a 'closer'...

    in reference to urgent message to worried grandma and candi81

    Culturing pseudomonas is very much diagnostic for cystic fibrosis- it is very, very fortunate that this was caught and treated. Those without respiratory disease like CF (or severely ill and in the hospital on a vent) simply do not culture this- in many cases, a culture positive for PA is a...

    Air purifiers

    That looks like a really good product. My only question would be regarding efficiency- I may have missed this piece of data in my reading over the info on the site, but I wonder how long it takes to cycle through the air in the room. Rather than drawing air in with a fan, it says it uses...

    Air purifiers

    If it just utilizes dry heat I can't imagine why it wouldn't be safe. I think it's a great idea, personally- I hadn't heard of this type. We are considering putting a dehumidifier in our bathroom since we are running into mold issues in there <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif"...
