I have been trying a new schedule for airway clearance - saline before sleep - 2 hours before bed, I neb saline, then do a few cycles of active breathing/huff coughing. The nights I do it, I have no 3am coughing jag. Still doing am clearance too.
All of my sputum is now quite clear as well - hardly a cloudy bit to be seen.

I do my second nebulizing also before bed and I am sleeping better since I started that. It worked for me. HOWEVER, when the bladder needs me to walk down the hall I have to do a bit of clearing before putting my head back on the wedge pillow. I hope to be able to say in the near future that my sputum is "quite clear"....I feel it is a bit cloudy. Glad you shared your new schedule. I like the before bed nebulizing because it gives me a longer period of time to do other things after the A.M. treatment.

Before I do saline my sputum is often a greenish color, similar to when I was coughing up before I was diagnosed with BE and seems to be staying that way. I think after my lavage I was clear for awhile then back to the greenish color. Before diagnosis I was losing some weight and could not explain it but after diagnosis and saline, etc I went back to my old weight level. Not sure what that has to do with it other than infection symptom, maybe...
