I see this is an old post. I am new to this group. I have Bronchiectasis, NTM and use a CPAP which helps keep my sinuses clear and I don't wake up coughing from congestion. I am interested in how to keep a CPAP clean. I change my nosepiece every two weeks and wash the nosepiece, hose and headgear daily with very hot water and dish soap. I rinse the humidity chamber daily with boiled distilled water and have recently started soaking it weekly in hydrogen peroxide
since I found out vinegar doesn't kill NTM. I don't use anything in the chamber except boiled distilled water. Is this enough? I was diagnosed with Bronchiectasis and NTM in 2008, have been treated for NTM. My Drs are of the persuasion to live your life with only basic suggestions on how to avoid NTM. I see on this group others are more diligent. I have become more anxious since having Absessus colonize. Thanks for any suggestions.
