I recently heard something about saline infusions (think I am right about this) being helpful in the treatment of cystic fibrosis. Please do research on this (I would think you would) because as you and I both know, seems like the medical profession really lacks now days in terms of competency. I told 1 physician I went to about a diagnosis and he had the nerve to roll his eyes up towards the ceiling. I told him I did not make the diagnosis, another physician did and I was just relaying. Name it what you want but just wanted some relief from my symptoms. I hope you will keep in touch with this posting and let us know how things go with you. Please do research though because you sure cannot put any confidence in many people.
