Usually when I have an infection I will turn blue/purple with exercise and coughing and yes even "intimate" actions. Freaks my roommate out (not the intimate just the coughing part!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). I also notice that my fingers are purple at the nails now too. I know that is a lack of O2. Sounds the same for you. I have to agree with AnD and bring it up. You don't have to say "intimate" times, just exercise. But it is better for your heart and will make the experiences much more enjoyable I am sure!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

I am supposed to go to clinic on March 6th and I'm going to let them know. I know that I should take this seriously and I do in a way, but it scares the crap out of me. Sometimes it's easier being in denial that a problem is a problem. I just want to be "normal". I am learning that CF is normal for me! Wish me luck on March 6th!

I can only lift weights. Aerobics are too demanding on my pulmonary system. I use O2 when I workout. I crank the meter up to 6-7 lpm with each breath and I get at it. I do turn a shade of purple at the end of most sets and catch my breath with the O2. I don't look in the mirrors at the gym, but i know because my hands show the same color.

Know that you are pushing yourself in these circumstances and try to take every percaution to help yourself should something go wrong.

Best of luck,
Grendel
