    Question

    My percussor pooped out on me. I do have the vest so I will have to use that in the mean time (I don't like using it though-very uncomfortable). The percussor I have is a Puritan Bennett Model 9000 which I don't think is made anymore. I just wondered for those of you that use percussors, do...

    Cepacia has ruined my relationship with my sister

    My situation is somewhat similar to yours. Both my sister and I have CF. I'm not sure of your age, but I am 39 and my sister is 42. Several years ago she was told that she had B. Cepacia (from a sputum culture). We didn't live with each other at the time of her diagnosis either which differs...

    Does anyone use these 3 specialty pharmacies?

    Elastase Test

    I just had an elastase test done. I don't know if the clinic is starting to do this now, but they wanted me to do it (and my sister also). I already knew I was pancreatic insufficient, but my test results came back as a 15. Anything over 200 is normal, 100-200 is mild to moderate PI, and...
