CF center: The usual suggestion for those with CF is to get treated at a CF center (a center accredited by the CF foundation) that has a multidisciplinary clinic. Nutrition, exercise, pulmonary toilet, and medications vary by age, lung function, and other problems and should be individualized. http://www.cff.org/livingwithcf/carecenternetwork/cffoundation-accreditedcarecenters/ can help you find one.
