Yes it does help. I have reached that conclusion. Now I have another issue. I took Ceftin 10 days in October for a Sinus infection. I still have not been coughing much nor clearing any mucus. My Pulmonologist says don’t worry; just increase nebulizing. Still not coughing up sputum. I am getting worried that the mucus is just building up in my chest. What to do?

I'm wondering if maybe the Ceftin temporarily "knocked down" the amount of MAC bacteria (note - not "knocked out") in your lungs to the point where you are not producing as much sputum? Between that and the 7% saline and airway clearance, maybe your lungs are pretty clear? The doc should be able to hear how you are doing.
