Hi Lora Jo, welcome to the MAC group. I moved your message to this existing discussion called "Good MAC Doctor Recommendations." I did this so you can connect with others who may have recommendations for a respiratory therapist in the SF Bay Area.

You've also asked questions about using a nebulizer and getting sputum. I encourage you to review some of the existing discussions on these topics. Here are a few recent ones that will provide some information that you're looking for:
