Lung Function drops with 17%

Okay, so I did the LF test and my lung function has gone down with 17%.
Here is a quick comparison between my stats in February 2013 and now.

February:
Before admission:
LF before using Duovent inhaler = 49%
LF after using Duovent inhaler = 51%

After the two week admission:
LF before using Duovent inhaler = 67%
LF after using Duovent inhaler = 71% !

Now: July:
Before admission:
LF before using Duovent inhaler = 51%
LF after using Duovent inhaler = 54%


So yeah, 71% was the best it has ever been since the very first time I was admitted. I am also not surprised that my LF has gone down that much. Because that is what happens all the time.

Just to inform you: I have, in my first 17 years, never known that I was SUPPOSED to be admitted. Everytime I went to the CF clinic they ask:
'Have you been to the hospital lately?'
to which I replied: 'no, not in a few years,' to which they then replied: 'Oh good! So it is going well!'

So in 2011 I was admitted for the very first time to receive the 2 week drip. But that is another story for another day.

Right now I just want to bring you up to date with what is up and happening here in my hospital:

- The doctor gave me Meronem for my IV. Usually I am on Taziject, but in February, just 5 days before going home, I got a massive reaction and my arm got a red rash which burned like fire. So she decided it would be best to try something different, which is still the same.
So far everything is awesome!

- I am also receiving physio twice a day which helps boost my lung function.

- I am 1.88 (oh gosh, I have grown an extra 2 cm!)
- Weight is 63.7kg, which is very good as well.

All in all, except for my lung function of course, the doctor is pretty happy.

Happy living
