Good conversation…I have questions. I use Aerobika w 7% saline 2 x day plugged in to my Ombra…which is noisy. With LWS (Lady Windermere Syndrome) I do not cough any sputum up…wish I could. The saline does “ initially” burn a bit, but I carry on dutifully. My process takes approximately 15 minutes and I am totally exhausted after…takes me another 15-20 minutes to gain composure…some days better/worse than others. So my airway clearance is nil…but I am of the belief that the saline must be doing something…am I correct? Here is a question…when my Pulmonologist( in NC) called in the script (from NJH) here at home, he also called in duoneb (for wheezing)…I have never used any because I do not believe I am wheezing…but Sue your comment that it “opens airways for saline” is thought provoking to me. Should I use it anyway? To open airways with hope that the saline will get down there more efficiently?
