Hey all,
Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I've never been on a CF board, hell, I haven't even talked to another CFer since way back at CF camp in the 80's. I've been pretty lame and avoided CF events fundraisers and etc. I started thinking I ought to be more involved and that it might be useful to hear about other folks' experience. So, Hi!
I'm a 36 yo single guy currently living in Florida. I'm finishing my Doctorate at the Univ of Florida in Biology. I study the evolution of animal behavior, and I work with birds, horseshoe crabs, and salamanders. I love teaching, and hopefully will be able to find a job in the next year or two...
I'm fairly healthy, although I had a pretty rough year last year and haven't really gotten back to my old baseline. I have lots of questions about what folks from other centers do in terms of treatment regimes. I often wonder if there are some meds that I should be on, why haven't I ever had a cat scan - is this something that lots of people do? What are these pulmonary physical therapy sessions that I've heard about, etc. So I'm looking forward to reading all the topics and talking to all of you.
So, yeah, I guess that's me for now.
Matt
