Good luck at NJH! Here's hoping you get everything you need from your visit.

I do something very similar to that. Albuterol 10-15 mins then wait 10-15 mins to give the albuterol a chance to open airways, then usually 7% saline for 15-20 mins and Areobika intermittently while doing the saline. Now I realize it takes time for all this but I do bring up a lot of mucus!!!! Especially in the morning as it has settled I believe in my lower lobes in the night while sleeping. I then am usually good for 6-7 hrs. Now Mayo classified my BE as significant. So I also repeat at bedtime
