Should 4+ Pseudomonas be treated?

@rits...I noticed you haven't gotten the replies you are seeking. It is frustrating. Your doctor sounds like an excellent source for appropriate medicines. Those of us who have constant mucous and are denied antibiotics for good reasons (candida, side effects, etc) have had to turn to alternatives such as postural drainage (see youtube videos), lung cleanse (see amazon), mucinex, and change in diet (acid reduction). You can take control over what you do every day. This will help you feel less helpless. I hope you find your answers.

Which lung cleanse from Amazon do you use? Thank you

Thanks egayle. I have been doing some form of sputum treatment and airway clearance for 10 years. I'm sick of it but I know I need to do it. While I have always had a great deal of sputum, it has been manageable and I currently have no problem bringing up sputum. Actually, it's the opposite. It comes up all day long, only stopping if I sit or lie down. Because I've never had anywhere near this much or so many thick globs, I think it is from the pseudomonas because excess, thick unmanageable sputum is the first symptom listed..
Sue and I think one or two other members responded to a previous message I posted which was moved to a different group. I plan to ask to be put on an antibiotic for it. I guess I'm hoping someone who hsd been treated for it will say. "Go for it." or "No
Don't do it."
Thanks for reading and responding.
