Yes, the first two months were bad including greatly increased cough and sputum but doing better now at 4 months although still increased sputum- a strange pink- orange color
Has anyone else had that?
Also I had to cut way back on airway clearance for first two months but now able to tolerate 7% saline again
Hang in there- you might start to adjust to it

Hi, I had the increased cough on the antibiotics, it was my body trying to clear out the infected mucus that was accumulated, but have not seen the colored mucus, other than occasionally blood-tinged.
Have you asked your doctor about it? What do they say?

@dulwich Hi there, yes, I have had that pinkish-orangish sputum at times in the past. I Always know something’s up!
