This is a total TMI post but here goes... Last week and this week I have notice blood streaks in my BMs. Not totally full but streaking throughout. I asked my good friend who is a nurse and she said I may be irritated inside. I haven't called my DR yet since he is away anyways. But I didn't...

I will be flying in the next few weeks (its an 8+ hour flight) and I need to bring my pulmozyme with me. Anybody have any suggestions on how to fly with it? It is the only med I have that needs to be cold. Thanks!! <img src="i/expressions/heart.gif" border="0">

Since my DR is going to this conference I wanted to look it up and see what would be talked about. Some of the info is pretty cool and I thought maybe you all would be interested in reading over it too. <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge...

I THINK it is a lung pain but I am not entirely sure. It ONLY happens when I am laying on my right side. It is right under my right breast and it hurts to inhale and then after I exhale at the very end it hurts. But as soon as I roll on my stomach the pain is gone. It has been a few days...

I want to start taking birth control. Just in case.... But I was always told not to take the pill because I am constantly on 2-3 abx. Supposedly they offset each other and neither works (or I am completely remembering wrong). So I wanted to see what all of you who are on BC take. I was...

This post may be a little TMI but I need help!!! I have been off of IV abx since last Wednesday. I have never experienced the IV abx stools that every talks about, "luckily" I always got yeast infections. But this time not so much. My problem is that it still isn't going away, I'm going to...

Since I left the hospital (ok 3 days ago) when I sleep I have the weirdest dreams. last nights actually woke me up in a panic and SOB. I was dreaming that I was dying and couldn't breathe and I told my friends to let me die that I was done. I am also waking up throughout the night drenched in...

Yeppers...I'm going in tomorrow. So I will be offline till we can kick whatever it is that is beating my a*s right now. My fever came back today full force and my O2 at rest is 84. I paged my DR and he said he wants to admit me and I said ok good. They are going to call me tomorrow when...

It's the Ambry Full Panel (I think). If your Ped is on board with you I would get them both tested. If they both come back No then you can move on to find another cause for their issues. I don't know if alot of DRs do the genetic testing before the sweat test or not. But you could do...

I woke up this morning with a fever (100.2) and I can tell I have an infection brewing in my lungs. I couldn't fall asleep last night because I was coughing non-stop and it has been that way since I woke up. I coughed so hard this morning I threw up which hasn't happened in a VERY long time...

Emily (Emily65Roses) and I were chatting one night about sweat test numbers. She mentioned the highest number she had heard of before me was her number which is a little over 100 I think. Well mine was 160!!! I have the papers in front of me so I know its true <img...

Ok I sucked it up and bought one today. Looks pretty cool! But I can't get the ater to run through to the other nostril! I had to stop because I kept choking on the liguid eww!! I leand my head forward and pointed the nostril not with the pot in it down. It filled my nose and then went down...

I know there are a few people on here from the Philly area so I am hoping you can help me. My mom wants to join a support group, but she doesn't want to be in the same one as me so that knocks cf.com out. I was wondering if anyone knew of a support place for family members of CFers that she...

I need remedies for making my voice come back!!!! It is so hoarse and sounds so bad I pretty much squeak and that is it. I went out with my friends over the weekend and we watched a band play so of course we had to talk a little louder. And I have never really gotten it back from when I was...
