Teri, I take a measure of satisfaction knowing that 7% saline is dangerous to the life expectancy of MAC. I’m going to mention it to my Pulmo when I see him. And I won’t be surprised if he’ll be hearing it first from me!

I’m entering the 11th “flare-up” free month, a record; the independent variable is pretty clearly 7% saline solution in the nebulizer introduced at the beginning of the period. Don

And I learned of 7% on this forum.

Hello Don. Thank you for your testimony about nebulizing 7% saline. I can really see a difference in our group member's health since more and more have gotten on board with it.

Don, I found the 7% on this site, too. I also sent the NIH article about it to my doctor. In month 5, I have done my sputum test again and so far no growth. When I did my first sputum last November it came back in 2 days with evidence of MAC. So, I am hopeful and grateful for the info on 7% solution! Thank you!
