I have health-related news, but no super-freakouts from anybody, OK?  The CFers out there know that this is no big deal and is a routine thing.

At my CF checkup on monday my lung function was slightly up from where it was last time (three months ago), but still not enough to be satisfactory.  And since I've been feeling constantly below-par for

On the bright side, you can come hang at our house and we are air-conditioned!

I'm glad you wrote this. When I get things from Mom it's often spun a little to the "worried" side and now I really feel like I've got the full story.

It's not really the same thing, but I sympathize with your PICC line story and how since it didn't go right the first time you're freaked out a little from now on. The first time I had the C-section it was emergency so I didn't pay much attention when they put my catheter in and when I was waking up in recovery it was a horrible shooting pain every time somebody moved the tube. As it turns out it had slipped out of position sometime following the procedure without anyone noticing. So, even though I knew what to expect during the 2nd C-section, and that it was in properly, I'd flinch anytime anyone had to check the thing or move the tubes around, worried it would slip out of position again, and the nurses kept wondering why I was so anti-tube when it usually doesn't give anyone any problems. Ugh. So, yeah. I feel you. Go with the anti-anxiety meds to have it put in, for sure.

Hee. Don't tell mom, but I'm a little glad that they're going to be gone when I'm doing the meds. Cross-country worrying is somehow less stifling than 30-minute-drive worrying. ;)
