I have Lady Windemere as well- classic I have been told. I took and still take Biaxin when needed which has helped flareups of BE. In my opinion I would try the two antibiotics suggested by your new ID doctor. You can always stop. The Clarithromycin ((Biaxin) has been beneficial for my ongoing BE Good luck. Irene5

Thank you for your reading my post and your response.
I have to constantly clear my throat of. At this point in time nearly every second of the day.
It goes from the foamy white bubbly to clear bubbly. When it reaches the point of clear bubbly it seems to let up.
Questions:
1. Is what you exeperienced or experience, the need to clear the throat of what gathers in your throat.?
2. Is it/was it the foamy white bubbly sputum when you clear your throat.?
With how I work to clear it out, I don't necessarily consider what I do as a cough, it's more like a pulling out of what is in my throat, what I would call a sucking out.
3. More specifically what do you feel the Biaxin was doing/ is doing/did?
More than anything the needing to clear my thoat of the substance every second, (mostly in the mornings and more so after I eat) is what causes me great disappointment...and especially the apparent confusion of what it is or is not per the doctors. It sure does limit my social life.
