@bronchiectasaurus Curious how you are able to get a prescription for hypertonic saline. Maybe you purchase over the counter. It saddens me that people are out there having to fend for themselves in managing BE but I understand. For a long while I was the one educating my pulmonary team as they did not see much BE in their practice.

@scoop I can get hypertonic saline, and many nebulizers and compressors, without a prescription. But I did need a prescription for the Pari eRapid! For that I asked the pulmonary specialist I was assigned. It took a few weeks due to clerical snafus but I eventually got it.

I have to pay for all my lung stuff out of pocket but at least I could get an Rx from my health system.
