      Hi, I'm 24 with CF, related Diabetes, Gastroparesis, and Sinus Disease. I enjoy life as best I can. I love family, friends, food, and animals! I believe knowledge is power, especially when dealing with CF. I'm also a Christian, and I love the Lord.

      Treatments

      Cipro Working / Worked
      I use this often when I'm sick along with Zithromax. It treats my lung & sinus infections. Gives me nausea, but helps the infection.
      Hypertonic Saline Working / Worked
      I LOVE this stuff. It's kept my lung function stable over the last 6 years. I use 7% and plan on using it the rest of my life. Fabulous when used with The Vest.
      Pari PEP Somewhat Helpful
      I used this as a teen. But, it's rather boring & never found myself using it.
      Pulmozyme Not Working
      I tried Pulmozyne before using Hypertonic saline. It made me cough out blood & I saw no improvement in my lungs.
      ThAIRapy Vest Working / Worked
      Wonderful machine! I love mine! I have the new smaller model. I use with Hypertonic Saline for a powerful combo against CF!
      TOBI Working / Worked
      Great when used with Cipro. However, I experienced Vestibular Damage from Tobi/Tobra. I can no longer use it for infections. Vestibular Damage is horrible to live with.
      ADEKs Multivitamin Working / Worked
      I feel much better & heal faster when I take my ADEK vitamins. I'll prob try the AquaAdek or ABDEK soon.
      NovoLog Working / Worked
      Currently taking with meals to control CF diabetes.
      Insulin (Regular and NPH) Working / Worked
      Currently use as long acting insulin to control fasting glucose & help with post-meal glucose.
      Protonix Working / Worked
      Great with reducing Reflux, and helps with Heartburn. I have Gastroparesis & Protonix is the ONLY drug that helps reduce stomach acid (combined with Pro-Motility meds)
