I'm reading this info and I have to say, I don't know what these "suseptability" tests are. I don't know if my ID doctor has run them but I'm going to find out. I also wonder why no one, ID doctor and/or plumonolgist hasn't said anything about nebulizing. I did ask my Pulm. doc about it and he said I don't need it, as long as I use my Albuterol before using my Smart Vest, he said it accomplishes the same thing.??? Thank you for any input. Toni

Toni, the reason I asked about a MAC diagnosis is that if you do, in fact, have MAC that's ample reason to nebulize 7% saline since 7% saline has, at least, the potential of killing MAC infections. That information appeared on this forum several months ago. Don't count on your doc to know about it; mine didn't but was receptive to learning it from me and promptly Rx'd it. Don

Toni, are you diagnosed with MAC? Don
