Thanks everyone for your responses. I was hearing so many different things, that I went ahead and called that Pari company directly. They said that the only Pari that can go overseas is the Pari Trek. So, now I have to get one of those. All you need after that is plug adapters because of the...

Hello, I'm travelling to the Netherlands next month, and I was wondering if anyone could help answer some questions I have. I know that the voltage or something else to do with electricity is different in Europe. Do I need to get a different nebulizer to use there for my breathing...

My favorite verse is Romans 12:12 - "Let your hope keep you joyful, be patient in your troubles, and pray always." This verse means a lot to me because it helps me to remember that no matter what is going on in my life, I can have hope in the Lord, and therefore, I can always have joy! Becky...

I got a wish granted through the Wishing Star Foundation (just like Make-A-Wish, but only in the north west) when I was 15 and I went to New York City to see The Lion King on Broadway. It was awesome!!! I had never been to NYC before, so my family and I got to see all the sights and just play...

Hello! I've been doing 3 treatments a day for my whole life (well, since I was 3 wks old that is<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif" border="0">) and now I am just used to it. I can't imagine what I would do if suddenly my doctor told me only to do one a day. I guess what I'm...

Hey Erin! I'm also living in the dorms at college. Like one of the previous posters said, I got a larger refrgerator so that I can fit in all of my Tobi and Pulmozyme, plus milk, meat and cheese for sandwiches, fruit, vegetables, yogurt, all that good stuff! And also like she said, with a...

Wow, I've always washed all my stuff in vinegar once a week, but if that's not necessary and all I need to do is to boil them, that would be so nice! The vinegar stinks up my college dorm room terribly...I can hardly stand it! I'll have to be sure and ask next time I go to clinic, thanks for...

Jarod, I was surprised to hear that you go to a clinic in Boise. I am from Idaho but have always gone to the Salt Lake clinic. I didn't even know there was a clinic in Boise. Do you like it better than SLC, or is it just closer to you? I've always like the Salt Lake clinic, except for the...

Hi Erin! I am also 19 with cf. I have heard of autogenic drainage, but I don't do it, do you? If you do, do you think it works well? A respiratory therapist started to teach it to me once when I was in the hospital when I was younger, but then as a change of plans I got to go home early, and...
