Well, I don't know if the Vest irritates the Pancreatitis. I do know when I get hand percussion...I can't go anywhere near the mid and lower left side because it hurts when I've had Pancreatitis. When the pancreas is literally trying to digest itself, it stands to reason anything moving it...

Hi Sheli...I'm a 41 year old CF patient without kids, so I can't relate to how helpless CF feels from a parent's point of view. I can say I wouldn't still be here today without my Mom being the strong woman that she is. I'm sorry you have 2 boys with CF and are struggling. I understand that...

I had a lung collapse and was taken to the local hospital. Not my choice...but ambulance didn't want to take me 40 miles to my CF Center. Anyway, the Attending came in and said..."So you have CF." I said..."Ya." She said..."When did you catch it?" I tried to save face for her and...

I'm on the Transplant List and my FEV1 is 12%. I got listed in November 2011 once I required oxygen 24/7 and my PFT's started dropping regardless of medicine. Everyone is so different. When my FEV1 was 20%, I didn't require oxgen...took it slow and was still was going to grocery store, etc. A...

First off...I fully believe they're different for everyone. After my first collapse, I definetly lost lung function...but was still functional in life. That was a quiet before the recent storm. First lung collapse was June of 2008. I spent the next couple of years sort of fearful of when it...

Hi...This may be reaching for you, but meds affect me differently depending on my monthly cycle. There have been studies showing the decrease in hormones make breathing worse. It may be worth it to pay special attention to your body at different times of the month. Colistin is a bear. If...

Hi...Once you get one, the stats suggest you'll have another, but that isn't always the case. I had a brother with CF that only had one, and another brother who had numerous collapses. I've had 4 pneumos since 2008. My last one happened during a hospital stay in January. I had a chest tube...

Hey Dana...it's awesome to see a nurse who cares so much about her patients and wants to pay tribute to a fallen CF soul. I go to RB&C in Cleveland, and we are lucky there! They've made a pod where the adult CF'ers stay, and it's as nice and as comfortable as possible. Being an old-time CF...
