Lung Matters Protocol

Posted by lvnl @lvnl, Jun 27 7:02pm

Hi, the info shared here has been so helpful as I'm now diagnosed with MAC after quite a few years of asymptomatic bronchiectasis. I see some back and forth about Lung Matters Protocol, could someone post the actual site (url)? Googling turns up several confusing results.
Thank you.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the MAC & Bronchiectasis Support Group.

This is for lvnl, who asked about the Lung Matters Protocol website. It is actually a facebook group called Lung Matters: Covid, Bronchiectasis, MAC, NTM, etc. Quite a title! You need to be on facebook to apply (it is a closed group which is good, eliminating the stupid comments that open groups get.)

This URL should get you there. It is extremely informative and interesting. The attitude is rather stringent, but you learn SO much. I recommend it.

Yes, tubing is not something you can clean or sterilize. If there is moisture left in it after you neb, run the compressor for a few minutes to dry it out. Replace the tubing every 2-6 months, depending on what the pulmonologist recommends - your neb cups need to be replaced too, and they come with new tubing.
