  • i had this done when i was 1 1/2 years old.

    so i dont remember it...may i ask why this test was so bad???

    I have Cystic Fibrosis I just know there will be a cure soon! I am praying and keeping the faith!

  • No prob about the feeding tube. I got it taken out a few months ago and had surgery two days ago to close up the hole. Yes, I'm in mortal pain but it'll get better.

  • My 12 month old daughter has to have this test done next week. I am really hoping that its not painful for her! She is so young that she wont understand. And i am PRAYING for a negative result! My thoughts and prayers are with all of you that have CF!

  • I had this done when I was about 2....Thankfully, the test came out negative, however, I still pray for all of those who do have CF and work to find a way of simplifying this disorder.

  • Symptoms and severity of CF nicely correlates with oxygen levels in cells. This is the conclusion of modern research. Russian MDs found that CF is reversible with correct breathing 24/7 that provides maximum body oxygen levels. Oxygen helps the ionic/water pumps to function normally. Search for "cystic fibrosis cells oxygen" and you ll get more details.

  • @xxgatorsfan91xx Thats great!!! and my boyfriend has it.

  • i had this done when i was about 6. i dunno if they screwed something up or what but it hurt like hell! it felt like i was being burned :/

  • He came to my church and my mom introduced me to him and told him I have CF. He talked to them for a little while, they signed some paper work, then he took some pictures of me. I'm on the trailer and everything. Oprah's dad signed a painting of me and Miranda Lambert too. Good news about the feeding tube, I GOT IT TAKEN OUT! I had surgery a few days ago to close up the hole.
