Does MAC & Bronchiectasis Contribute to a High ESR Test Result?

Dear Sue,
Yes, G answered my question about Aerobika. I might try to order a new one because this one arrived from a private address. Where did you get yours? I was told that Walgreens doesn't carry them. I have not yet been on meds but hope to avoid them as long as I can.
Warmly,
Darla

I got my first Aerobika from the respiratory therapist, but lost it on a trip and bought the second online from one of the neb supply companies. I didn't need an Rx. I clean mine in soapy water every day and set out to dry along with the neb cup. Once every week or two I soak 30 min in soapy water, then in alcohol to keep as clean as possible. I have been wondering whether a biweekly soak in 10% saline in distilled water might be just as effective since it kills both MAC & Pseudomonas in a petri dish.
