Thank you all for your testimonials. So valuable! My BE finding came after a CT-scan of my lungs August 1, 2025. Ever since, I've been navigating my way through treatment. I get the best results clearing out the goopy mucus from my breath work and postural draining (somatic based yoga). My focus is on non-drug airway clearance, trying to avoid steroids, antibiotics and other drugs with known and nasty side-effects.
Here's my question: Has anyone in the group been treated for their bronchiectasis with glutathione or its precursor, NAC --N-acetylcysteine? There are some research studies that show promise, but not many. Treatments create the smell of rotten eggs, so that's a drawback, but it works to reduce the bacterial load and more. My pulmonologist is not 100% sold on it, but keeps an open mind. So I turn to anecdotal evidence, which is fine with me. Anyone treated with glutathione? Anyone with NAC, nebulized or pill form? Thanks.

@mp22 If you go to the top of this thread/page to the left you will see in Blue 'MAC and Bronchiectasis" Click on int and it will take you the the page where you can put words in the search box that you want to search. NAC and Glutathione have had conversations as you will see in doing a search.
I do not use them but others may answer you here or there might be some answers when you do the search.
