Sue, for some time I’ve realized that my bronchiecstasis/MAC is less severe than what you and several others on the Forum contend with . For example, I don’t experience my lungs as “hurting.” I’ve never taken the “big three.” I just cough more than most people, and I bring up a good deal of mucus. Adding 7% saline to the regimen effectively ended periodic feverish flare-ups.

Along with a few others, you form the “backbone of the Forum. I don’t think it’s hyperbolic to say your contributions are a treasure. To wit: your response to Crepass above. Don

Actually Don, my case is called moderate. It just acts up a bit more because it shares my lungs with asthma and allergies. My daughters insist the "hurt" is sore chest muscles from coughing, but in my opinion when it hurts to take a deep breath, I'm allowed to blame my lungs.

I really think 7% saline has been a game changer for several of us.

Have a good weekend.
Sue
