Glad to hear everything went smoothly and the babies are healthy. Hope they post pictures soon!!

I did get the story from the CFF site, but thanks for the link. I have the little R-registered tradmark by it so they know I didn't make it up myself. I'd just always wondered if it was true; you never know anymore about things you read. Thanks!

I'm sure most of you are familiar with the 65 Roses Story. I'm just wondering if the actual story is true or not. I know they use the name Mary Weiss in the story, but I didn't know if she was an actual person or if they just picked a name and used that story. Maybe somebody out there can...

I feel for you in this situation. It's hard to offer advise in this situation when it's happening to someone else. If you are having such a hard time with the dr.'s, can you move him to a different facility. I don't know if that is feasible or not. I hate it when docs think they "know all"...

Julie & Mark (and babies), hope you guys are holding up ok. I bet you're pretty anxious/excited/terrified all at the same time. Hope everything goes well and that the babies are big and healthy. Keep us posted!

<div class="FTQUOTE"><begin quote><i>Originally posted by: <b>amy</b></i> Amox Clav is much much different than Amox. So thanks for clarifying. Amox Clav, like everyone has stated, is notorious for giving people GI problems. CF or no CF. Do you have PA? If they gave you Amox Clav for PA you...

Hi Marcy. I'm always a bit fascinated when I hear of people being diagnosed later in life. I just can't imagine that (since I was diagnosed at 3). Welcome to the site.

<div class="FTQUOTE"><begin quote><i>Originally posted by: <b>amy</b></i> 1. Kylie is 100% correct. Amox is not the same as Augmentin. Amox Clav is Augmentin. 2. Resistance rates to penicillins are EXTREMELY high. As a result, dosing of Amox has risen drastically over the past decade. So...

<div class="FTQUOTE"><begin quote><i>Originally posted by: <b>Jane</b></i> What else are you taking Alyssa? The same thing happened with my son with Bactrim. He had taken it lots of times before with no problem, but when they added another antibiotic, it made him throw up. We tried taking...

I had a very bad case of nausea/stomach upset (thought I was going to throw up several times but never did) early Saturday morning. I had taken my first dose of amoxicillin (generic for augmentin) late Friday night (about 11:00). About 2:15 or so I started getting that nausea feeling. I don't...

I can luckily say I have never had any major bleed. I have had a few streaks of blood here and there, but nothing where I have ever coughed up pure blood (thank goodness). I'm 35 and my last FEV1 was 1.57 liter (don't remember the percentage) and I have Staph, so I guess I should consider...

How precious! She's a beautiful little girl!!

<div class="FTQUOTE"><begin quote><i>Originally posted by: <b>coltsfan715</b></i> Allisa, Have you by chance had your gallbladder removed? If so that may be the cause of the occasional green stools. I never had an issue with green stools until I had my gallbladder removed. I think it is...

WOW, 59, thats great!! As for feeling like an old man, my husband is 35 (no CF) and complains about feeling old (lol). I tease him every time his birthday rolls around. Hope your brother had a great day! Happy Birthday!

Well, this isn't a very pleasant subject, but here it goes. I would say about 80 percent of the time, mine float. I have also had occassions when it is green. I have mentioned it to the doc and the dietician, but they didn't really seem to concerned about it, so I figured it wasn't that...

That is so sweet. Glad to know I'm not the only teary-eyed person on here. It's always nice to have that kind of friend.

Wish I had some useful advise I could give you. I do the same thing. I get to coughing hard and up it comes. Sometimes it just comes so fast, you don't have a chance to stop it. But I have noticed that sometimes (not all the time) after I throw up that I tend to quit coughing. Sometimes I...

If you have family members at your home, I don't think it would be rude to ask them to step outside if they want to smoke. Hopefully, they would be respectful of your wishes. Just a side note, my mother was a smoker until I was a teen. She, unfortunately, had a heart attack. After that, she...

Liza, I previously posted to your original message and didn't see the date. Sorry about that. I'm sorry your little doggie is gone. We also buried ours in our backyard under the tree with her favorite blanket and mouse toy.
