What is Dry Bronchiectasis?

I agree - the volume of sputum you are producing seems quite a lot. I'm not sure I would wait until August to talk to the pulmonologist about it.

May I ask what you are using to nebulize, and what kind of airway clearance exercises you use? Also, are you on any medication to manage your asthma?

Thank you, Sue. It was last August I saw specialist.
I have been using 6% hypertonic after salbutamol. The specialists over years have complained that I am non compliant with their steroids for asthma. I did recommence Symbicort some months back in order to retry it. It seems to help if I am doing extreme exercise, but other than that I can't see any benefits for my Bx and since I don't notice my asthma, once again I have stopped it.

Specialists seemed to think mucus volume caused by other than my mild Bx.

2 doses of Lignosis now and I can feel the difference! However it is very expensive.
