I have CF, but it will never have me!: Disappointing but not discouraging

Disappointing but not discouraging

I don't usually write so many posts in one week but since I had my doctor's appointment this morning, I'm going to go ahead and write another.

The appointment was disappointing but not discouraging. My numbers were down about 6 points so my doctor will check my sputum culture and decide what antibiotics I need to be on. Winter is notorious for being the toughest time for me anyway. I'm also going to change how I do my TOBI Podhaler to see if that increases my numbers.

Like I said, I'm disappointed but in no way discouraged. I'll continue to work hard in the gym and do what I have to do to beat this disease. There are a lot of battles in the war against CF and today my body lost BUT my mind won. I still have a positive outlook and look forward to going back in 3 months and showing those doctors what Andy Lipman is all about.
