      Thank you for being honest about it. Personally I have a number of concerns about the technology behind this generation of drugs and it remains to be seen what the long term effects will be...
      May I ask how old you are?
      Have you tried any natural remedies (herbs, vits & mins, specific foods, etc) ?

      @@bblrip3690 aw thank you! Yeah for sure, no drug is ever perfect! Sure, I am 20, & no I don’t take any vitamins or natural remedies - only drugs prescribed by my doctors & the pharmacy 🥰

    I didn’t get hungry. I’m on prednisone ... so maybe that’s why I didn’t notice an increase.
    My insomnia did get worse !
    I wish this was a miracle drug for everyone. It’s not. It’s hit or miss.
    It’s not what we all expected. But it’s amazing to have the option to take it. I didn’t think I’d ever see the day
    I don’t cough a lot now. My sinuses are no better though. And thankfully I didn’t get the depression.

      its so confusing isn’t it, it’s not black or white at all , you’ve just got to weigh up what’s best for you I guess ?!
      I wish it was a miracle drug for everyone too!! But yes it’s amazing just having it there as an option, & knowing that more stuff like this will come out in future!
      I’m so pleased to hear it’s going well for you 💛

    The insomnia is definitely a problem and so is the eating !!!! Haha but great tho. So I have been running for ages. Average 5k is 28 mins. I took kaftrio threw up loads of crap over a day. Next day went for a run did it in 20 mins. Mad

    Before I started taking Kaftrio I had like 63 kilos. That was way to low. Now I am at 72 kilos after only 3 months and my lung volume skyrocketed to 97%. I guess I’m just lucky but this medicine is just great

      omg amazinggg so happy for you!! Honestly I think it’s just so individual from person to person how it’s going to affect you the same as any other drug - but it’s so fab it’s had such a positive impact for you :)

    I’m terrified of weight gain with kaftrio I start it next month. I feel like not even taking it.

      thank you for sharing as god it’s so reassuring to know it’s not just me?! but also, I’m so sorry to hear that it is a concern of yours too 😩 - I guess the same as every other medication you just have to try & weigh up the pros & cons of it for you personally, & what is going to be best for you & your overall health 💛
