@kndaustin71 I years ago used to use Mucinex DM for the mucus but once I started using NAC 1000mg once daily (at least 7 years ago?) I do not seem to have any issues with mucus. Yes -- I do every so often need to blow my nose, but nothing like being clogged with mucus. It truly does thin the mucus out for me. Great that you do exercise and with a trainer at that too which is extremely helpful, excellent with our disease. The biggest help for me in addition to keeping active; breathing exercises which I learned after my visit to Mayo Rochester . Have you tried one of those Aerobika devices? I was given one but haven't found the need to use it. A link below:

Many find this little appliance helpful, I have one but haven't found the need to use it (knock on wood). I too am on Breztri, Combivent when/if needed and for more than a year on the new Ohtuvayre. Cheers to your valves: I have 3 ULL installed back in 2020 which did help in spite of their saying they might not, being my lungs are homogeneous.
