Perhaps you are hyperventilating as you neb? People often try to breathe very deeply to get the solution deep into their lungs. But it's not good to breathe that deeply unless you slow down. I used to do it - my daughter who often used to do nebulizer education in the Emergency Room says "Inhale 1, 2, 3, 4. Hold 1, 2, 3, 4. Exhale 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Pause 1, 2." It fixed my problem - are you willing to try it?

I will. Thanks much!

Slowing down helped a little but still get light headed. Been reading that this does increase blood pressure and heart rate. Another quick question. How long did it take for you to notice the benefits of this process?!
