Aerobika green valve blows out; common?

Sorry to hear about covid diagnosis. Not an answer to your question but I am curious where you purchased the aerobika? Some people purchase from eBay and I wonder if those are defective.
Within the past 6 weeks or so I've stopped using the aerobika since I no longer use it while nebulizing. I have not missed it. I find that active cycle of breathing and autogenic breathing enough for clearance. That said, I will take it on an extended trip with me just in case.

Thank you scoop for your experience because I have done the same thing. I try to do postural drainage, active cycle breathing. autogenic breathing, walking, some exercise, and chest/lung percussion every day and I believe it has been a success for me. I also think my boiling some water in the kitchen, where I am so much of the day, is helping. I will know in a couple of weeks when I have my CScan and so hope what I am doing shows positve results.
As of now, I feel fine and energy level is good, as long as I am able to get in 7 hours of sleep and thank goodness I have been doing just that.

I bought the first problem one from Save Rite Medical and they told me to contact Monaghan. I did and sent it for a replacement. The one they sent did the same and I thought it might be temporary manufacturing issue and put old flutter valve in the new case. This one I got at Medicaleshop.
I have appt with pulmonologist and for spirometry Wed and will take it. I would think it is me since I still have above normal PFT’s, but the first didn’t blow out.
