Coughing up Yellow gelatinous gobs after finishing antibiotics

So good to get those globs out, regardless of color. Pulmonologist says that no two days will be the same in terms of what we bring up (color, quantity). All variable. I relaxed a bit after I learned that. What's important is to keep your lungs as clear as possible. Sometimes that means 2x day clearance, for others less.

THANKS FOR THE REPLY. (wooops, all caps were on.)
i am new to Bronchiectasis having been diagnosed recently.
Up until this i considered myself very healthy!
I never coughed up yellow gunk before, unless i had a lung infection.
I just want to make sure that I still don't have an infection.
Even at the peak of previous infections, almost non stop coughing and little sleep, I never had a fever. Even when diagnosed with pneumonia at the beginning of this, there was no fever.
So, I was wondering how to tell if I had an infection.
Thanks for letting me know that in your experience the color does not matter.
Your reply is much appreciated!
