@sueinmn I am curious, Sue. What do you think were the main things that turned your cultures negative? Do you think you would have turned negative without the antibiotics?

@juliea55 I think chances of converting without antibiotics was not good because my infection was severe, and the last 6 months I took them daily.
But the real turning point was adding 7% saline nebs to the my airway clearance. I started with 3x per day, after 2 negative cultures reduced to twice daily. After 2 years went to once daily, now once or twice a week unless I feel anything respiratory coming on. Still do daily airway clearance. And I keep my asthma and allergies under control.
