Digestive issues? Is that related to the CF?
I am sorry to hear of the diagnosis. Can you tell me more about the digestive issues? I am 65 with bronchiectasis. In the last six months it is as though my food gets stuck and I end up violently coughing up mucus with what I last ate with it from time to time. I have referrals to Univ of MI by my doc as well as a referral to a speech and language specialist that will explore my food digestion. I am curious what your daughters digestive issues were and how they became better controlled. Thank you!!!
