Me and my husband have been throwing around the idea of moving to Hawaii. Of course theres no CF center besides the military base so I was wondering on the care there. There has to be non-military CF'ers there. Can anyone shed some light on the Docs, will CFPAF transfer assistance there, is...

My sister had her transplant a month ago and today we got news the lungs are rejecting. Or "acute" rejection as they call it. Were all nervous of course and the doctors are not really saying much. So of you guys that have gotten transplant, can you offer up some insight? It seems so soon for...

So I hear alot of talk about having antibodies and it making it harder to get matched. My sister had no antibodies so she couldn't answer my questions. This might sound really dumb so bare with me!! haha Where do they come from? Or how do you get them? Are they from having blood transfusions? Is...

I want to do something nice to show my appreciation for the help my sisters doctors have given her. I thought maybe giving them a card would be good, but it doesn't really express how grateful I really am!! Its seems so little after giving her a double lung transplant! Maybe I'm just being...

I'm posting this for my sister who had a feeding tube placed at the end of December. Since she's had it done she's been doing manual percussion. But recently has been trying her Vest back on. Yesterday her site was sore and oozing a little bit. Also feedings haven't been going in smoothly. Her...

Me and my husband would like to adopt over seas. Were trying to decide what country to go through while deciding on an agency. we have awhile until the home study is done so I thought I'd see if any of you have experience. Have anyone of you adopted over seas with CF? And if so what country...

I'm not sure if this is just an Arizona thing or Southwest thing but in Phoenix we have what is called Valley Fever. Its spores that are in our dirt that we can breath in and its from what I've read, not great at all if someone with CF gets it. Well....my sister got it. She has CF and recently...

Hello all! I've never posted in this section so I hope this subject is suitable here. I'm not pregnant so I thought It'd be better to post this here instead of the pregnancy section. Me and my husband have been TTC since we were married 3 1/2 years ago. Frankly I'm tired of it and just want to...

This may be a really dumb question but is TOBI just for CF'ers or do they treat other kinds of patients with it? The reason I ask is, I was told not to take it around babies. Because they will build up immunities to the drug and if needed to be on it someday, they couldn't be. But if the...

So me and my husband went to see a new Reproductive Dr. yesterday. This isn't anything new to us as we've done 3 medicated IUI's back home. His plan for us is to only give me 2 more shots at the medicated IUI's than move on to considering adoption or IVF!! Doesn't this seem a little soon? I feel...
