Hi Everyone I am a 54 year old female w/cf
I posted this message on the adult forum. Don't want to scare anyone, just want to share my experience so that you can be aware. A couple of years ago i was in the hospital for a tune-up. I was on tobramycin & cefapime. I had diarrhea was vomiting & was not on IV fluids. The antibiotics became toxic and i went into kidney failure. I had to have dialysis severl times. A 1-2 week stay turned into a six week stay. please always be aware of what is going on with your child and the care they are receiving. Don't be afraid to ask questions,know what the levels are and what they should be.
God Bless, Joni
