What great advice.

Thank you. I have a follow-up question: did NJH say that you could skip using the aerobika for a week or so and just use nebulizer with the saline? If this is the case, I guess you could bring a few nebulizers and simply clean when you get home. Cleaning would be even easier with less equipment to clean. I presume that you don't heat the distilled water used for cleaning and rinsing but simply use at room temperature. That would make it easy if you just needed a microwave once a week for sterilizing. Thanks again for the tips. We need all this helpful information so that we can have the freedom (and courage) to leave our homes.

Could someone recommend a small, easy to use nebulizer...maybe handheld. Thank you.

@128128terry11t When I was going camping, Dr. Huitt from NJH said I could go ahead and just use the Aerobika without the saline so kind of opposite of what you said. I happen to have two Aerobikas so that makes it easier. I can let one dry and use the other. As far as the distilled water goes, I really only use it to sterilize. Otherwise I use hot tap water and dish soap and let it soak in the bowl I brought. Some people though, don't use tap water for drinking or anything but I always have.

You shouldn't be using tap wAter to clean. Water should be boiled 10 minutes to kill MAC..

I have the microwave bags but have never figured out how to use them. How long do you but the aarobika in for?

Thanks for all the useful advice
