Bronchiectasis: Is nebulizing helpful?

I have to say that improvement happens so slowly that I was surprised to see the test come back negative. However, now that I think about it, I don’t need a nap anymore so that’s an improvement. I’m also less likely to have productive coughing fits at random times during the day. I have days when i feel quite normal so that’s saying a lot!

I will not stop nebulizing though as I have bronchiectasis and I fear that the mac will show up again if I’m not vigilant.

Kathy -
Thanks for taking the time to tell us. I like to refer to the state you and I are in as living our best lives, with bronchiectasis. It's kind of comparable to my husband who has been living his best life, with diabetes, for over 25 years. It requires vigilance, self-care and self-awareness to stay on top of small changes before they become catastrophic. As you know, it includes being your own researcher and advocate, to get the best possible care.

Please keep encouraging others with your success story!
Sue
