Brinsupri experience after 3+ months

Started Brinsupri about 15 weeks ago. Definite decrease in severity of respiratory infections, (much easier to recover from.) Daily sputum volume seems variable from day to day. I use 1/3 fewer tissues than before starting Brinsupri. Some days more than that and somedays less, and the same goes for color and thickness. It varies. It seems like I have reached many different plateaus throughout the course. Some days it's amazing how fast clearance is and others long and frustrating. Most significant change is decrease in daily cough. I used to experience multiple coughing jags per day, now that's limited to 1 or zero. Seem to have greater exercise tolerance and stamina. Sinuses feel better but I take a daily Allegra, which helps tremendously.

Overall observation: Brinsupri has reduced my cough. Progress not linear. I have experienced multiple plateaus, some at a higher level of improvement and others lower. There is still notable day-to-day variability, which I hope will stabilize over time.
