Hello this really has nothing to do withthis forum but I can not get an answeranywhere else and you guys are the mainpeople who reply so I have cf. . .

Cystic fibrosis is a relatively rare,inherited disease that affects the lungsand digestive system. The disease ischronic, progressive and ultimately fatal. It is estimated that there are about30,000 people in the united states who areaffected with cf and between 2,500 and3,000 babies who are born with it eachyear. Cf can occur in all races, but itis most common in caucasians who havenorthern european heredity. Cf ishereditary. Children contract it as theresult of both parents passing on anabnormal gene. The parents/carriers arenot affected themselves by the abnormalgene
a defective gene causes the body toproduce abnormally thick, sticky mucusthat clogs the lungs and leads tolife-threatening lung infections. Thesethick secretions also obstruct thepancreas, preventing digestive enzymesfrom reaching the intestines to help breakdown and absorb food.
The mucus also can block the bile duct inthe liver, eventually causing permanentliver damage in approximately six percentof people with cf. People with cf have avariety of symptoms including: verysalty-tasting skin; persistent coughing,at times with phlegm; wheezing orshortness of breath; adults, however, mayexperience additional health challengesincluding cf-related diabetes andosteoporosis. Cf also can causereproductive problems%u2014more than 95percent of men with cf are sterile. But,with new technologies, some are becomingfathers. The stick mucus also clogs thereproductive tracts making it hardersometimes impossible to conceive althoughmany women with cf are able to conceive doto were they are mainly effected and howhealthy they are, limited lung functionand other health factors may make itdifficult to carry a child to term.
