Hi @kpost2, welcome to Connect. You'll notice that I have moved your message to an existing discussion about bronchiectasis in the MAC & Bronchiectasis group. If you click VIEW & REPLY in the email notification, you can scroll back through the past and recent posts.

I also invite you to explore all the discussions in the group. There is a wealth of information here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/mac-bronchiectasis/tab/discussions/

For example, this discussion:
- Long-term Antibiotics for Bronchiectasis & MAC https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/bronchiectasis-mac-antibiotics/
- Are Nebulized saline and Aerobika beneficial? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/are-nebulized-saline-and-aerobika-beneficial/

One thing you'll quickly notice is that you're not alone. I'd like to introduce to a few members like @windwalker @tdrell @irene5 @kjellis and others who understand your feeling like a lab rat and searching for treatment/management options in support of or as an alternate to long-term antibiotics.

KPost, do you use a nebulizer?

I used a nebulizer before and it seemed to mess with my eyes. My eyes had a hard time focusing, so I was told to stop using it.
