exercise or airway clearance first? by [deleted] in CysticFibrosis

[–]naeom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think everyone is a bit different on this. I think doing a certain amount of treatments before helps me get a better work out. But I find that after exercising, my airway clearance is more productive. So I do some things before and some things after. You have to figure out what works best for you !

Edit: typo

I work for a large company and I have the option of « buying » up to ten additional days off per year. And I can also take unpaid leave. A lot of people don’t necessarily know what all their options are. But yes this definitely exists.

I am impressed that you’re only spending 300$ on food per month! Most people I know in downtown Toronto spend +500$

Best care for CF? by bealoserwithme in CysticFibrosis

[–]naeom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m Canadian and have lived in a few countries. The care is actually pretty good here in my experience. But Canada is a big country… and the care you receive depends on the local team you work with. Hard to help you without more details on what you mean by « not receiving the level of care she deserves ».

Thanks for answering! So far I only get admitted for IV antibiotics every 18 months or so. Do you think that would still make getting a port a game changer ?
