If anyone could give me some information about cystic fibrosis and how it affects their daily lives I would be greatful. I am interested in the disorder and am doing a project on it.<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

If you just read through the old threads you will find a lot of personalized info from everone on here - stuff you won't find on the internet or in books. Look back at a thread titled "Especially for women", Piper gives a lot of good info in her thread from July 10.

Well This is how it is having CF. Just like any terminal illness, you wonder whats next. Our whole system is messed up, from our lungs to our pancreas. So as you can imagine its very painfull at times. Some good days some bad days. As for me and my experience, I would call my condition moderate. I just had a child 5 months ago, and ever since I first got pregnant with her I have gone day to day wondering when the day would come where I'll have to say goodbye forever and if she'll resent me for it. Healthwise, Im doing pretty good and always have been, I go into the hospital about 1 to 2 times a year for a lung cleanout. And like I said other then that there are some days I feel perfectly fine. There are some colds which I can beat over a week or two, and some that eventually put me in the hospital.

I guess your terminology depends upon your condition. I am pretty healthy and definitely do not consider it a terminal illness. Just a hindrance - maybe life shortening illness. Then again, i can run and breathe well - I am very fortunate
