Sue,
I use a massage gun for percussion for about 5 or six minutes, then stretch for another 5 minutes before nebbing levabuterol (5 min) and 7% saline ( 20 min).
After that I am trying different things to bring up mucous. I use the Aerobika for 3 to 6 rounds, autogenic breathing, and also try postural drainage, while using the autogenic breathing. I hardly bring up anything., only about a teaspoon of white flaky or stringy stuff. I have brought up a very tiny light yellow glob twice. I am so discouraged that I cannot bring up mucous.
Any suggestions?
Sally
