Pseudomonas
Dear expert team, I have just a few general questions: 1.) Does an infection with Pseudmonas inevitably lead to a worsening of the lung function? 2.) Or can the Pseudmonas be suppressed in such a way that he can not cause big damage? 3.) Are there in the near future therapies, which can eliminate the Pseudmonas? Best regards and many thanks

Emigrating
Hello, We have a 15-month-old son who suffers from cystic fibrosis. We have the option of relocating to Mallorca, or otherwise to only spend the winter months there. Would you consider this to be an advantage for our son’s health due to the milder climate? Many thanks in advance.

Swine flu
Currently there are many discussions about swine flu but what is really the right thing to do? Would you get your daughter (15 months, CF) vaccinated with a clear conscience?????????? And what about the family members? The older sister (3 years), the parents (we)? Grandparents? Or is the prevention after vaccination so high that it is sufficient to only get the daugher with CF vaccinated? What would you recommend???? We are very confused due to our media. Thank you for your answer, best regards, V. M.

Swine flu vaccination during inhalation with antibiotics
Hello, You already answered a question regarding vaccination during IV antibiotics therapy [this refers to the question “Swine flu vaccination during IV therapy”]. Can I transfer your recommendation (finish antibiotics therapy first , THEN get the vaccination) 1:1 to the inhalation with Colistin? Sometimes the antibiotics therapy takes several months and maybe it is too late for a vaccination until then. What to do? Stop the inhalation for a while and then get the vaccination? If yes, stop for how long? Many thanks for your answer.

Sarcoidosis
Hello, my son has CF, and there is one person with sarcoidosis among the people with whom he is in close and regular contact. I am worried and scared that this contact constitutes a risk for my son. I hope you can calm me down. What things do I possibly have to pay attention to in dealing with this person? Regards

Pseudomonas stutzeri
Dear Sirs and Madams, there is a lot of information on CF and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. My son (10 years old) was diagnosed with Pseudomonas stutzeri. I can hardly find any information on this. Can this strain be treated by inhalation with Tobi®, and is eradication as difficult as with P. aeruginosa? Many thanks.
