I have not been feeling good for about 3 or so week, maybe more. I did the 2 weeks of IVs 2 weeks ago and wasn’t much better but that is probably due to the fact that my pseudomonas is multi drug resistant. We are limited on what will “work” on the stubborn drug resistant bug (pseudomonas) in my lungs. I made the dreaded call after the 4 days of 40mg of prednisone and no improvement. I need something more therefore I had to call with all the I have coming up. I have a busy 5 weeks ahead. Next weekend we are going to the Zac Brown Band Concert, a bucket list item for myself. Then I have a girls trip to the Gulf Shores the next week. Then in 5 weeks we have our good friends wedding weekend. (more…)
CF Happens
Sometimes in life CF (Cystic Fibrosis) happens…pun intended
-
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited chronic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system of about 30,000 children and adults in the United States (70,000 worldwide). A defective gene and its protein product cause the body to produce unusually thick, sticky mucus that:
- clogs the lungs and leads to life-threatening lung infections; and
- Obstructs the pancreas and stops natural enzymes from helping the body break down and absorb food.
