    CFRD

    I have heard of atypical diabetes resolving on it's own, but I could not find anything on the spontaneous resolution of CFRD. I just did a cursory search, I'll keep looking.

    Elevated IGE Levels

    Often ABPA will behave quite like asthma, with the exertional dyspnea and all that, wheezing sometimes too. Elevated IgE along with an apsergillus specific RAST are considered enough to go with a Dx of ABPA. Unfortunately, the standard treatment is high dose corticosteroids. There is a newer...

    Sinus question

    MN- I had 2 pretty extensive sinus surgeries (Partial ethmoidectomy, turbinate reduction, bilateral frontal sinusotomy and frontal balloon sinuplasty. The balloon sinuplasty really helped open things up) followed by a month of IV abx and gentamycin nasal flushes. I continue to do saline...

    Sinus question

    My left frontal is very small and mal-formed, although we aren't to the point of reconstruction yet, I have had to have several revisions. I think I'm on #5 now. I found a really good ENT surgeon, though so I am happy with the results and have no more daily headaches.

    Hyper-Sal????

    Hyper-Sal is simply hypertonic saline, and not a pharmaceutical medication per se. Some people do well with it and others don't (like me, I had more bronchospasm and it did not increase productive coughing). Since it's not a Pharmaceutical, there aren't any assistance programs that I am aware...

    Military

    After i took my ASVAB in high school recruiters called me constantly. All I had to say was "I have CF" and I would get "oh the other line is ringing, I have to go. Thanks for chatting, bye." I think I had to do that with almost every branch of the military. Although it is unfortunate, it...

    picc question

    I have had some of my PICCs ooze or bleed a bit. I always request extra dressing change kits and change the dressing if it bothers me that much.
