Doctor's Appointment update!

Today was my first doctor's appointment of 2011. I am always paranoid that my appointment won't be good, especially when I don't even feel well. I kept my mouth shut this time even though I had accepted a bad report. Here are the stats:

Weight- 114.75 lbs... down from ~116.
FEV1- 72%! Up from 63%
Total capacity- 73%!! Up from 64%

WHAAATT?!! Both lung numbers are up 9%!! Dear friends, I have been preaching the miracle of Cayston without results, but now I have solid results: Cayston WORKS. Are you listening?!! It took me a few doses to get results, but I have results!!! 9%!! I've never had a jump like that before. I was blown away. Absolutely blown away.

Three words: God bless Cayston.

I also saw today JM who recently got his new lungs. He looks good and his mom said that he is doing so much better. That's such great news.

JM update

He got the lungs! His mama said all went well and he's out of surgery. Yay!

The Call for JM

A fellow CFer, who I will refer to as JM, got The Call for his lungs about 7 hours ago. He lives in a city only 30 minutes away from me and the largest group at my local Great Strides walk a month ago was for him. I have no updates other than he got the call. I'll update as I know things.

Thanksgiving post is coming up along with a great video my mom showed me about some upcoming new drugs! We have so much to be thankful for!

Be back soon!
