I a...Hi Tor, well done for all you've achieved. I also have CF but unfortunately i was told this year i am not suitable for a transplant. For the last 10 years my lung function has fluctuated between 16-20%. It was around 30% in my 20's I turned 40 this year and I'm currently a Director of one of the main 4 UK Banks. My employer doesn't know I have CF and I live my life making sure I don't walk upstairs with others etc like you mentioned. I can probably walk about 50 metres on the flat before stopping for breath and do overnight feeds and nebs. I know we're all different but wanted to say that after 3 years of waiting, don't give up hope if the transplant doesn't come. I have a great life and feel very lucky with what I have. I wish you every success.paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12950985405267563843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-178999393048722515.post-46737278747677457672010-11-22T18:41:48.522+00:002010-11-22T18:41:48.522+00:00Hi!
