Doctor's Answer

Fingerhead, let me start by thanking you for reaching out to this message board, and let me also say I am so sorry you are dealing with the complications of CF and type 1 diabetes. But let me also say we are all volunteers and cannot give any medical advice pertaining to type 1 and/or CF. As a “mom” of a son with type 1 my heart goes out to you, and as a responder to this board, I have to say I/we are not qualified to speak regarding CF.
I have done a “search” on the web but again I am not comfortable passing on any information because I cannot “endorse” anything I have seen.
My best advice to you is to speak with your physician and a nutritionist regarding your questions. I wish I had a concrete answer for you…but unfortunately I do not.
But as a “mom” I understand your desperate search for answers, I only wish I had them for you.
I can only say, I understand…I pray you will find the answers to your qiestions.
