IV at home
Dear expert team, I hope you can help me. My son needs an IV therapy now and would like/should do it at home because there are rarely beds for CF patients in the hospital in charge. Is there a company in the Vienna [Austria] area offering such therapy? The Fresenius company does not offer it any more. Best regards, Gerda Schmit

Heart transplanted CF patient and pregnancy
Hello, My fiancée and I are strongly engaged in thinking about starting a family. Since she has Cystic Fibrosis and furthermore was heart transplanted, we are very insecure if this is possible at all. She is 24 years old and the heart transplantation was done at the age of 14. Her general condition is very good. Is there a substitute for the immunosuppresives that she could take during the pregancy? Is a pregnancy under these circumstances (two problem areas) possible at all? Thank you very much for your efforts.

Atypical CF
I would like to ask: Since September my daughter has had repeated stomach pain, throat pain and headaches, and the doctor has always said that she has some kind of viral infection but she always prescribes her only Stoptussin for the cough. She has an atypical form of CF. We inhale amiloride. I would like to ask if she has been sick for so long whether antibiotics should have been prescribed since September. She has only been in school for three weeks since September, and now she has to have tests in all subjects because she is always absent. Please give me advice what to do next.
