What is your wife's diagnosis, does she have bronchiectasis, any infection, cough? Is she using meds other than the neb, and what is the prescribed med for the nebulizer?
It would be helpful for us to know, since our symptoms and treatments are so varied.

Sue and Spencersok, I have been using a nebulizer two times a day and it really helps in getting mucus out. Especially before going to sleep. No longer cough at nite. I have Bronchiectasis and MAC. Its my understanding that the treatment for MAC is difficult and can lead to other ailments. So am I correct in thinking that what I am doing is to get rid of mucus and infections from the lungs? So far my Dr. hasn't given me any medications for MAC but to clear the lungs with a saline solution. Hauoli
