My girlfriend is 20, she has Cystic Fibrosis and recently had a double lung transplant and is very frail and has lost a lot of weight. Since she’s been out of the hospital whenever we sleep together when we wake up she’s all wet and so are the sheets. I love her so much but what should I do about this? I want to be there to comfort her but what should we do about her problem?

I am doing a report for my class, and I have no idea of any major sources. Does anyone know of any companies or various groups that promote healthy living/eating?

Sandra asked:


My twin daughters are four and they want a dog or a cat but they have Cystic Fibrosis so I’m worried about the animal hair and germs from the animals if I got them pets because they are very prone to infections already and I’ve never had any animals around them in our house before. Would having dogs and/or cats around them be a problem?

Some people are already at their proper weight and have an exercise program in place and just want to eat healthier. But every time I see a question about healthy eating folks automatically send in diet and exercise tips or website instead of the answer.
To those of you who actually READ the question Thank you so much.

Hemorrhoid Cure

butterfly asked:


My son has been under the 3rd percentile for his weight since he was about 4 months old. He’s now 15 months. I’m working with his pediatrician to try to find out the reason for this. He’s on dietary supplements even (a soy “pediasure” due to diarreah/vomiting with milk products. He was breastfed as a young infant so we didn’t know about the milk allergy until after he was one). He’s been tested for cystic fibrosis and some other things with his thyroid. Those were negative but it did show that he had some sort of anemia. I’m looking for some scholastic resources that I can pass along to his doctor in the hopes that we can get him into a normal weight range. Thank you in advance for your help.

My son is 9 yrs old and has severe allergy problems. He takes nasonex daily and loratadine. He has had nasal polyps before and had surgery to remove them. The last time I took him to the ear/throat/nose specialist he tells me that nasal polyps in children are very unusual and almost always related to cystic fibrosis. Ok, I discussed this with his pediatrician and she said it was nothing to worry about..but she seemed to always overlook things and was wrong most of the time. This was a few years ago. I have changed his dr since then. So last night I was lookin in his throat for some strange reason and there are polyps there! I looked up his nose and there are polyps there too! I am really freaking out! He has appt w/dr on Monday! I don’t think I can wait til then! Is it possible that he may have cystic fibrosis and not been diagnosed at this age? He is healthy otherwise and is full of energy and seems to be growing fine. Please help me if you know info on this or have CF.
I have a friend who died at 19 of CF and this would absoltely devistate me beyond belief! Please let me know of any info that may help from experience or other…
It’s not Samter’s Triad, he’s not allergic to aspirin. He never takes anything with aspirin anyway. I have called his pediatrician and he is going to call and talk to me. And yes, polyps in children is unusual. I am told that in 30% of kids with nasal polyps b4 the age 10 have CF. Into adolescent age 100% do. I need to quit researching it..as I am uncontrolably crying.
I reallly appreciate all your comments. I did speak with my son’s dr yesterday b/c like I said I didn’t think I could wait til Monday. He said that it’s uncommon for 9 yrs to be diagnosed, but is not impossible. Also, my son is biracial B/W and that black ppl are less common to have CF. I don’t have CF in my family, don’t know if his dad does (he’s not around to help). The reason I have freaked out so much is b/c with all the research I have done says nasal polyps in children are related to CF. I feel a little better after speaking w/dr. He is setting him up for sweat test and we have already put in the call for ETN specialist appt also, to have them removed. Of course I haven’t let the kids hear me talk about this, but when my son (the one in question) came in from school yesterday, I couldn’t help but to give him extra love. Thanks for ya’lls help.
