    amazing PFTS CONTINUED

    Haha, I do have mild bronchiectasis. Sadly, I don't have the graph of all the PFT's, I just saw it in my chart. I do have my most recent numbers, though: FVC: 6.09L Measured (Reference 5.03L) %Ref 121 FEV1: 5.01L Measured (Reference 4.01L) %Ref 125 FEV25-75%: 82 (Reference 79) PEF L/sec...

    A sex question for CF men (and especially their partners)

    Rarely does the male transmit a yeast infection to a female, it's usually the other way around. The salt thing I can't see being a problem unless perhaps there's a secondary factor of vaginal dryness. A UTI is possible, but symptoms would not disappear in a few days without antibiotic...

    Amazing PFTs

    Crossfit is awesome. I lived about 8 miles from a Crossfit gym for awhile, sadly, there isn't one near me now. P90X and Insanity are both good programs. Insanity is mostly cardio. Crossfit also posts their daily routines online, if you're that motivated and have the necessary equipment.

    Self medicating with alcohol?

    Regina, You're going to have to see a sleep specialist for the Valium. My CF team prescribes almost nothing if it isn't to do with my CF directly.

    Amazing PFTs

    I thought about Facebook, but I'm not a huge fan of that service. I'm on a site called TeamBeachbody, but like anything you have to stick with it. I'm better at just getting out and doing things, rather than logging in and scheduling workouts. I'll do some searching and see if I can find a...

    Self medicating with alcohol?

    I've never really liked the feeling of being really drunk (A good buzz while at a club, sure) but not the college binge drinking where you wake up in a random place missing half your clothes. To that end, I do have raging insomnia and take Valium for sleep. Valium is a mid-range benzodiazepine...
