    HillRom - The Vest Company's Law Suit

    Just to clarify, even if you didn't seemingly pay for the vest (ie. your insurance paid for it), you did indeed pay for the vest and quite frankly so does everyone else. So, if the vest company is indeed overcharging for the vest, we are all paying for it in some way. Now, that said, I don't...

    CF causing Acne?

    Well, I guess the good news is that CF isn't the cause of your acne. I've got acne and it didn't start until I was 19 and just got worse and worse. There's a lot of info out there about treatments. The Docs like antibiotics and topicals but in the long term they didn't help me. As a CF...

    HillRom - The Vest Company's Law Suit

    Possible reasons for not signing (becoming part of the lawsuit) would be because you don't agree with it or to reserve your right for independent legal action. Once you agree to join the class action suit, you give up your right to sue as an individual. That said, I agree with Amy. I'd hate...

    Cough Spells

    Sean's had this happen a time or two. His Dr. said to use Robitussen DM (I'll have to double check the "DM" part) before bed. I know normally cough supressants are a no-no with CF but his Dr. said as long as the cough wasn't productive we could use it. Of course, that's a short term fix only.

    Enzymes and diaper rash

    Sean had and still has very sensitive skin. It wasn't long after he was DX and put on enzymes that a really bad case of diaper rash appeared. The Dr. gave us a Rx creme but I don't remember the name. It didn't help all that much. It was better than Desitin but not much. Have you tried "Butt...

    What is considered "mild" CF?

    Back when Sean was first diagnosed (1996), the severity of his CF was very important to us. We wanted his Dr. to give some insight as to what we could expect. Well his Dr. told us that she wouldn't attempt to classify Sean's CF until he was at least a year old. So, we waited and the first...

    Doc telling not to look up cf sites

    Firstly, I highly doubt that their Dr. was speaking directly about this site. Secondly, there is a lot of crap information on the internet about every subject. I think this site is great and provides an excellent source of information, advice, and support but we've had people come on and try...
