What is Cystic Fibrosis?
Approx 1 in 2500 people in the UK suffer from CF and over 50,000 people worldwide. CF is caused by mutations in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator gene (CFTR).

The 'CF Trust's Ask The Expert' is an advice service for people with CF and their families. You can ask any questions you may have about treatment, medication, nutrition or any other aspect of living with CF.
