Diagnosed with MAC but not being treated

windwalker --- I have another question. Mayo's said I needed a different tubing/nebulizer part for the toby and they gave me one. However, it certainly is slower delivering the product that the one I use for albuterol and saline. Do you have a different type mouthpiece from the one you have used for albuterol? I fail to see why this is any better but certainly I'm not going to question what they say. Would surely like to cut down that delivery time. I'm a full hour or a little more with albuterol, saline, and then toby. Is this your experience?

@auntnanny I was told to use the same cup as I use for the saline and albuterol. It does take a long time to get through all three treatments. Mine take a bit longer than an hour. Sometimes I cheat and skip the saline. (Only because I am not as ill any longer) Pine pollen has hit the south already, so I am being more vigilant lately with the saline. These treatments are time consuming, but worth it. I use the time to read through the posts on our Connect site while I do it.
