Sorry it has taken so long to respond! I do airway clearance the first things every morning. Here is what I do:

1. 2 puffs of albuterol
2. Rinse sinuses with saline rinse
3. Nebulize 7% saline
4. Perform Active Cycle of Breathing until clear
5. Nebulize Budesonide through a sinus attachment - this has helped greatly with the thick drainage from sinuses
6. I rinse everything immediately - I have four sets of cups so I wash and Sterilize in my Bololo sterilizer every four days.
7. I typically walk 50 minutes a day about five days a week. If the weather is bad I have a rowing machine in my home that I use. I also do 10-15 minutes of yoga and use hand weights a few times a week.

Hope this helps!

Susan

Hi Susan-
Sounds like about two hours a day or more, if doing nebulizing two times a day, devoted to the routine. However, sounds about right for doing right by ourselves.
So, do you have time to do all your daily tasks including preparing food, cook. eat slow and by having small meal portions often throughout the day and clean up and help others on Mayo ? 🤣
Hope your Valentines Day in filled with smiles also,
Barbara
