I love ibuprofen and try to use it carefully. I dose myself 200 mg at a time and do not use it if I am feeling well, which luckily is pretty often. My mucus production is lower when I am on it and I would not be surprised if my PFTs were different pre- and post-ibuprofen absorption too. Some...

The most basic question I'd start with is what kind of pump are you using? I'm a few years out of this, but had a hugely higher output for the motorized pump versus the other kinds. Then comes questions like: are you hydrated, eating a lot, have you tried supplements like fenugreek? Have you...

I was a very sports oriented kid, and radiologists always exclaim at how far down my torso my lungs extend. I don't know if that is related, but I will say there is a lot of benefit to exercise that works your core and builds your coughing muscles and posture, AND exercise that makes you pant...

I was doing some research about alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency--what has been considered a possible cause for my bronchiectasis--and looking at whether gene combos that cause variations in this "substance" are researched in people with CF. A1AT in layman's terms helps with repairing damage to...
