description Patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) are living longer due to advancements in treatment. We present a patient with CF in whom diagnoses of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and severe pneumocystis pneumonia were delayed due to anchor bias.

In addition, we discuss the number of management challenges that may arise in patients with a dual diagnosis of CF and HIV.
