Linda, I am on the same regiment of Tobi. I pretreat with albuterol & 7% saline solution. No pseudomonas in 6 months. I have never had any shortness of breath.
My only complaint is the 60 to 90 minutes each morning and night for the treatment along with all the hacking and coughing.
Good luck
Tom

Thank you, Tom. I also use albuterol, the puffer not the nebulizer. Which saves me about 20 minutes. Then I nebulizer with 7% saline. And then I use the vest. But, I do the huff cough clear my lungs so I don’t cough as much. Total approx 1 hour. I’m always positive with pseudomonas no matter what I do. My next culture for pseudomonas is in April. I’d love for it to be negative!
Stay well,
Linda
