NEBULIZING WITH 7%

Within a few minutes of nebulizing with 7%, I start coughing.
So I stop and suck on a CVS cough drop. After 30-60 seconds,
I can continue. Sometimes I will cough again after two or three
minutes, so I do the cough drop again. Sometimes it takes me
45 minutes to do 30 minutes of 7%, but I think it's worth it.

Interesting to read a different perspective. I also start coughing soon after the nebulizing begins, but I don't discourage it because I find it brings up a good bit of sputum. I simply pause...cough...spit, then continue. I usually empty the cup in 20-25 minutes and follow with Aerobika.
Each of us must do what we find works best. I am grateful for the sharing here where we learn of other options to try.
Thank you,
Anna
