Yes, I agree. The mask outside, especially on the hot days, was a drag....
As much as nebulizing gets tiring at times, I try to keep telling myself I am keeping my lungs as healthy as can be and am protecting myself as much as possible against MAC with the 7% saline. My physician was so sure I had MAC and was surprised when everything returned negative. I was grateful. This forum has educated me on how much people suffer with this. I am a nurse by background and had never heard of MAC or had one chart I reviewed reflect a patient had MAC. I fit the profile for "Lady Windermere Syndrome", but was glad did no have it....so far. That is a fancy sounding name for a disease one would not wish for!

Gej53…your post made me smile this morning😎 Your background, experience, sense…all qualities we appreciate…keep sharing. I also nebulize 7% daily. I do have bronchiectasis and 2 strains of MAC avium complex. Also worked in hospitals, and respect the good work/workers.
We all need the encouragement…whatever our level of dis-ease/un-wellness…that we are participating fully in our recovery plan, and by this Forum, help others. So thank you again. BTW, I do present as the sovereign Lady Windermere. My Mother must have been psychic…she even blessed me with a royal name….Regina (translation “Queen”).
Stay well.
