hiya! 40, diagnosed at 3 months. sweat tests results, as the doc put, "off the charts". Yeehaw! PFTs around 55%. Doing pretty well though, just ran a 5k this morning and hiked some fun mountains last month, so my scores dont really reflect my all around condition. Married, two amazing daughters, and an equally wonderful husband.

Thanks for all the replies. You all inspire me. Do any of you work full time? Do any of you have disability? My husband works full time, but he is considering applying for disability. Not sure if he will be approved since he doesn't miss much work, but the job is getting harder for him.
