<blockquote>Quote<br><hr><i>Originally posted by: <b>Anonymous</b></i>I read the article and found it to be very interesting. If it's true, it will drastically change the treatment of cf, IMO, given that it is opposite of the current line of thinking (that cfers produce more mucous).<hr></blockquote>Don't think so. What part of the current treatment would you change? The article contained nothing new. It may sound new to some, who never got it, that the phlegm in the airways consisted almost totally of debris from bacteria and blood cells and not of mucus. And it is another strong hint that the immune system of pwcf is anything else than weak. The new study might be the end point for mucus blockers like Lomucin and hopefully enlightens some people not to fiddle around with immune system boosters like echinacea.PeaceTorsten, dad of Fiona 7wcf<a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/cfparents/">CFparents, over 800 members from all over the world</a>
