while attending my new clinic the doctor has been looking for any signs of heart failure, i thought this was strange, is there anyone that has heart failure or signs of it bc of your cf? I am really worried about it because lately my feet have been swelling and my socks been leaving imprints on my legs, rather kinda sore >.<

(L)ALSO wanted to announce that my boyfriend and I are getting MARRRRRIIIIIIIED (^)

So happy for your upcoming wedding. On the heart failure I would say depending on how much damage is done to your lungs he may be concerned that your heart is having
to work harder. I know that the lungs and heart go hand in hand. Also, with the swelling he will be checking your heart and I would assume he would also check your kidneys.

Ask him if he has any concerns and that at your other clinic they did not check for heart failure. My daughter is followed by cardio because of the cf but not for heart failure.
