So I am wondering when people have a drop in their Pft's how much is too much? I know that everyone is different. July last year I was at 87%. I started HS and went up to 92% in Aug. Sept I started having problems and they havent gone away since. I was on cipro & augmentin for oct-jan and even a 2 week dose of of one iv. After the iv in nov they were back up at 86%, so I was happy. Well I still felt congested and not normal. So we contiuned oral antibodics till about feb. I went in to clinic in March and I was at 82%. The lowest that I have been since I was at 79% back in june of 05. I was not happy at all. They wouldnt put me on anything and told me to be happy that I was at 82% most CF people would dream of 82%. But for me thats not good compared to my normal. They told me that this is a pregressive diease and that numbers will decline, like DUH i dont know that. I have been around 85% for the past 10 years and now over 6 months I keep dropping. Something isnt right. So last week I got them to put mt on prednisone thinking it was asthma, nope not at all. I still feel tight and cant brethe in deep. Today I called asking to be on ivs and they said no. But did schedule me for a PFT monday morning. So when you have a drop how much is too much? I am totally being agressive with them and feel like I am just getting blown off. I dont want this to stay perment at 82% but I feel like *****, I honestly feel like I am at freaking 60% right now.
