Thanks Az. CF is invisible but so are the emotional costs of the disease and then just life issues in general. Someone on my team also said to me (the same day), "Oh I heard you are coming with us because you have no friends." What? Is this just my state where people are so rude?! I have friends...

On a recent Great Strides walk I was approached by a mother of a CFer. Because I was wearing a green shirt, she knew I was a CFer. At first I thought it was nice she approached me to say hello. She then began telling me how wonderful her CF clinic is and she could not "get through it without...

What state do you live in? If you are close to me I can give you a referral to a dr. I know. Amazing, I have CF and no one dx it til age 50 when i went to every doc under the sun. you either do not have cf or you have a genetic mutation they have no discovered yet. I had good success with paleo...

Insurance only pays for counseling/therapy if you plan covers it. If you have a private insurance plan you have to call the plan inquire if they have outpatient mental health. Ask if there is a limit for the # of sessions, deductible, copay , etc.

This is not correct. Therapists are usually psychologists, licensed professional counselors, licensed social workers. Psychiatrists do very little therapy and most do not have training in it.

I was not diagnosed until approximately three years ago so I didn't grow up knowing I had cf. Now that I know what it does lurk in the back of my mind every day. I plan on living to be as old as I would've even without cf and plan to live to be very old and into my 90s. I worry about it in terms...
