    HTS - How do you dilute?

    I know some people get the kits that contain 10% and 1% (or is it .1%?) and mix them to make 7%; if you had that you'd be able to make up a weaker dilution to gradually work your child up to the 7%. You still need a prescription for this. I don't know that it could cause actual scarring, but...

    Thanksgiving Blues

    Emily has been sick with parainfluenza (the virus that causes the vast majority of viral croup) and it was one of the very worst illnesses she has *ever* had. Your niece will be shedding virus for a while- granted, not to the extent she was right before getting sick and while at her most...

    Fat/calorie pills?

    I think the issue would be the size the pills would have to be to contain an appreciable amount of fat. The most concentrated form of fat, I believe, is oil... and you need a tablespoon of it to get 120 calories. MCT fat (the most easily absorbed by those with cf and often used to help gain...

    Mealtime Struggles

    With all our kids (Emily included) if they don't eat dinner, 'snack' an hour later is made up of the reheated dinner plate, when we know that they like it. I've always figured if they are hungry enough for a good snack they will be hungry enough for the nutritious stuff first, and they need it...

    Kinds of CF

    One definitive thing- maybe the only one- about having a sweat test of say, 100+, is that it's much more of a 'lock' on the diagnosis. Some people with borderline results can be far more symptomatic but have a harder time securing their diagnosis due to their results. Some mutations are more...
