    My Son is sooo picky he won't try anything.

    Liza, I now see you offered the same advice as me about grocery shopping with your child--glad that works for you! And your TV advice is similar to being influenced by a possibly-older friend coming over to eat with your child. Soooo cool. It is funny too that you have had success with aged...

    My Son is sooo picky he won't try anything.

    I don't have CF and I don't have a child with CF, so my advice is less than relevant. I am putting my two cents in though because I have three relatively adventurous eaters and I am a "foodie." Also, one of my three kids has some texture/sensory issues--enough so that I have thought to myself...

    Exercisce and/or Physical Therapy

    My gym membership costs are deducted from our family's flexible spending account. My pulmonologist wrote a letter saying I needed to exercise for mucus clearance for bronchiectasis and chronic bronchitis. I submitted it to the company that manages our FSA and they approved it within two weeks...

    Preventative measures for lung health

    Chris, In addition to what others are saying, I think it is very important and beneficial to make sure your son does a lot of aerobic exercise. If he already does lots of sports, make sure he keeps it up, and does modified workouts when he is sick or on the rebound. If he doesn't do a lot of...

    Medical Id Bracelets

    I have one. It lists my name, bleeding disorder and bronchiectasis. I donno if an EMT would know what the latter is, but I am hoping it will keep them from wasting time looking for a gastro source to the blood. In the past, I had to explain that was not the case...but what if I couldn't...

    Pregnancy & Albuterol/Xopenex

    I used albuterol anywhere from once a week to four times/24 hours during my last pregnancy. Probably averaging once a day? I think you might want to go on Pulmicort which is the class B lung-inhaled version of rhinocort and will do the steroid part of what you'd miss if you dropped Advair...
