Hi, I have been reading through the nebulizer posts and have learned quite a bit I did not know. I did not get any specific directions from my doctor for using the nebulizer. I read the directions from the manual. I have now been using it for a little over a month. It does help me cough up mucus. I use it two times daily. I have a blue Pari vios pro.
I am wondering what people's technique is for nebulizing. I have to start and stop over a period of 45-60 minutes so that I can cough and relieve the irritation from the salt. I am using 7% saline and am wondering if I can get away with using 3%. I have not been diagnosed with MAC. I have been diagnosed with bronchiectasis and most recently an in my right lung infection that did not resolve to antibiotics.
I think that the nebulizer has helped me feel better and I am not coughing as much between nebulizer treatments.
I haven't received it yet. Hopeful! I am staying isolated. Will let you know. Thanks for asking
