I had mine done for about a year. Everything was bussiness as usual. Just remember to rinse your mouth out after you do nebs, inhalers ( you should be doing it anyway).<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

thats good to hear, thanks.I just got mine done (3 days ago) and it was a bit hard to do physio (PEP) because i found it hard to cough, the bottom ball would catch on my teeth and pull/rip on the piercing! My tongue was still swollen and with the longer bar wouldnt have helped.I was worried I would have to remove it! Which i do not want to do because i love it! Its still a lil' swollen but its ok.And yes, ive been washing my mouth with Listerine after doing physio and nebs.

Hi I'm 23 and have cf.I have my tongue pierced two times and I have no problems with it. If a have a cold I take it out for a day or two so I don't chip any more teeth off. I have real short barbells that's the way to go after it heals up. I would use biotene mouthwash. It a little bit better stuff and heals the tongue faster because there is no alcohol to irriate it . good luck
