    Am I overreacting?

    hmw and kitomd21, I hear what your saying about that protective urge. Our two are competitive gymnasts...I watch the older do flips on a beam where one bad move means something is going to break and it aint gonna be the beam. Its scary as all *****, and frankly makes me a little bit nauseous...

    Daughters going to Hospital Again.

    Alysasdad. I cant imagine what you are going through. All I can suggest is try to find a support group for parents with chronically ill children. Most hospitals usually have something like that. Do you have family nearby that could assist? I dont know if this helps at all, but I was...

    Diagnosed with 3 months (of age)

    I was diagnosed at 3 months after losing 25% of my birth weight, pneumonia, pneumothorax, etc. They thought they had done a sweat test and it came back negative. My parents argued for ages trying to convince the hospital that they hadnt done it. Finally, they "repeated" it. I was off the...

    Am I overreacting?

    Umm, if any other kiddo is sick at the childcare, your kid is going to be exposed whether you like it or not. Children are NOT sanitary creatures, not matter how hard you try. They wipe their drippy noses with their hands, slobber on the toys, etc. And that assuming they DONT stick their...

    African safari

    all the above are excellent suggestions. When I went to a deserted mangrove island in the middle of nowhere to do research, I took a handhelp percussor so I could do the PT myself. It held up pretty reliably, even with the heat and rain. MIght want to look into it.

    4 Minute Mile....anyone?

    I think the world record for women is currently is around 4:12. I dont think people are trying to be hateful, just realistic. In fact, the CF boards are some of the most non-hateful boards I have ever visited.

    Sinus Surgery... Good or Evil??

    You're not alone. I had roughly 8-10 sinus surgeries prior to age 21. The benefit for me only seemed to last a few weeks to a month at best. I have found that my sinuses infect my lungs quite a bit and I have almost constant sinusitis and allergies. Each hospitalization for the surgery...

    First meeting with Nutritionist

    Umm, yeah, I'm with Incomudrox here. If you have a CF diagnosis and any GI issues, standard enzymes should be tried. Is this a CF clinic doc? I'm not totally clear regarding your issue. Are you majorly constipated or loose as a goose? (sorry, my mother's phrase......how these things...
