Cystic Fibrosis

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease – and it’s one that can lead to a lifetime of health woes. This disease causes a buildup of mucus in the lungs, pancreas, and digestive system, along with other organs.

Cystic Fibrosis (CF), a disorder that causes severe damage to the lungs, digestive system and other organs, is one of the great mysteries of modern medicine. It’s not all doom and gloom though. Modern medicine has managed to developed medical strategies that can see a CF sufferer live well into their 40s and 50s.
