Good question Susan. Yes I have tried it. At first I used 3% saline for just 5 minutes (not using the entire vial). Then I switched to 7% saline again for just 5 minutes. I did it about a week but noticed no improvement of any kind so I stopped. I might try again at some point. And that does not mean it would not help someone else.

Thank you Irenea; I posted comments under @lindabreathless, but if you have any follow-up I would be in appreciation.

@irenea8 How interesting that I just came across this . I feel like the crud I have in my throat in the morning is coming from behind my soft palate. I have pseudomonas and Absessus. I nebulizer 3% usually once a day. Sometimes a mix of 3 and 7. Already been through PIC lines and antibiotics 3 times. On a whim, I started exhaling through my nose. I also cup my hand over the mouthpiece and inhale through my nose on occasion. My thought being the same as yours, to knock back whatever is going on up there. I'll have to investigate the Pari Sinus Star. I've been considering going to an ENT, but ....
Thanks for sharing what makes my experiment make sense
