📝Living with cystic fibrosis often means making tough medical decisions, even when they’re painful. In her latest column, Lara Govendo shares what it was like to have her port-a-cath removed after nearly 10 years — a device that had become part of her body and her lifeline for IV antibiotics. The removal was necessary, but the process was intense, emotional, and far from simple.

Her story sheds light on the realities many in the CF community face: navigating infections, scar tissue, painful procedures, and the uncertainty of what comes next for venous access.

A powerful reminder of the strength it takes to manage CF every single day. 💜

🔬New trial data shows obexelimab may significantly lower IgG4-RD disease activity and reduce the need for glucocorticoids.

In a Phase 3 study, obexelimab demonstrated a 56% reduction in the risk of IgG4-RD flare compared to placebo. Many patients also tapered off or discontinued glucocorticoids while staying on treatment.

💙 For people living with IgG4-RD, this could mean a potential new option that targets disease activity without relying long-term on steroids.

Happy Pride Month! 🌈

https://bit.ly/4dy4YQL Explore conversations across our rare disease communities. 💙

Finding people who get it can feel intimidating.

Rare disease communities often start with questions about symptoms or treatments, but some of the most meaningful conversations happen around everyday life, grief, family, work, hobbies, caregiving, and the moments in between.

Whether you share your experience, ask a question, or simply read along, your perspective could help someone else feel understood.
