Feeling great, HOLIDAY!

I finished my IVs last Tuesday, and I'm feeling great!
I have so much energy and can finally get back into the things I love, Cheerleading, Dancing and going out with my friends.
I'm so glad I feel A LOT better as next Tuesday (20th August) I am going on holiday to Turkey, there is quite a lot of us going, Me, mum, dad, 2 of my sisters, my 3 year old niece, my sisters boy friend, his mum, and MY BEST FRIEND JESS!
So we will have lots of fun! When I go on holiday my doctor prescribes me salt tablets to take, and extra antibiotics just in case of an infection, but hopefully I will be okay!
I will update more before I go on holiday!<3

IVs and CF clinic.

Hello!

I am just over half way through my 2 week course of IVs, it has already made me feel A LOT better, I have lots more energy, and want to be able to do things.
The only thing I don't like about it is I can't join in properly at Cheerleading or go out with my friends much as my Ivs are every 8 hours, 8 in the morning, 4 in the afternoon and then midnight.

CF clinic.

So today, Wednesday 31st July, I went to Cystic fibrosis clinic, everything went well, I put weight on, I grew a little, and my lung function stayed the same, I will have another lung function in just less than a weeks time (onTuesday) to check my lung function after my Ivs, so I'm hoping it will go up and won't be in the 80's. My normal lung function is usually between 90%-97% so it's usually pretty good!

Updates.

Sorry I haven't posted in AGES!

So I have had a rough couple of weeks, I'm due my IVs so I have been on 2 courses of antibiotics as I've not been too well, but I can't have my IVs yet as I have a cheerleading competition on Saturday so I'm excited! I go into hospital the Tuesday after the competition for my IVs.

The past few days have been extremely heart breaking for me, one of my best friends, Lizzie, my twinnie gained her angel wings and went up to heaven to join Lucy.
I was heart broken, I couldn't believe it, I didn't want to. I now know that Lizzie is out of pain and that she is looking out for me and all of her family and friends.
I know Lizzie was a big inspiration to many people, including me.
When we first met something clicked and we both knew that we would be friends FOREVER!
Rest In Paradise beautiful, I love you so much, and I always will do!<3

Feeling good!

So sorry i haven't been able to post in a while, my laptop was broke!
~
Any way, i'm feeling really good right now!
i had my tonsils out, the first week was difficult as i couldn't eat much and i need to eat to gain weight.
After the first week it started to ease of and i could eventually start eating harder foods.

I am now back at school, i have had my first week back, and it's good to be able to go out and go out with my friends!

TONSILS!

Tomorrow it is exactly a week since I started my IVs and I am feeling loads better already I actually have energy to do things, and I have even been out to my local theme park (Blackpool pleasure beach) quite a few times this week as I have a seasons pass!

Anyway tomorrow (Thursday 11th April) I am finally having my tonsils removed!
I'm a bit nervous, but not a lot!
I'm just not liking the fact that it will hurt to eat! But other than that I'm fine!
And I know it will help me a lot in the long run as my lung function will improve as I will be able to have my nebulisers all the time, so that will help a lot!
I will keep you updated on ho I am feeling after my operation!

IVs, tonsils, and GTT

So I have now started my IVs (intravenous antibiotics) and I have had 2 days worth of them so far!
At the moment I don't feel any different but in a couple of days the antibiotics will make me feel like I have more energy, but I am having my tonsils out on Thursday, but I know it will help me In the future as when I have had twilit is in the past I haven't been able to have my nebulisers so it was making my lung function drop, but now my lung function has gone up to 94% from 86% so that's really good, as i Have had quite a few infections recently!

While I was at the hospital yesterday (Thursday 4th April) I also had a glucose tolerance test (GTT) to test me for diabetes, this means me not being able to eat or drink for a certain amount of time, then I have to have a blood test, then I have to drink a certain amount of glucose or original lucozade, I drank the lucozade as the glucose is very horrible and thick/gloopy! So after i have drunk it all i have to wait 2 hours for another blood test! We haven't got the results for it yet, but when I know I will update!
I will update you more on my IVs and tonsils soon!
