@ritapearl Hello - I haven't seen you here for a while. Glad you are adjusting to the saline, but yes all the coughing is tough.
Are you currently on or off the antibiotics? What about Arikayce?
Things change so fast for all of us, I never can remember.

Sue. Things are not good. The antibiotics did not agree with me.I am now using 3 and 7% twice a day for 15 minutes.Also use Albuterol inhaler occasionally.My coughing and wheezing is getting so bad. Today I tried Benzonatate 100mg for it.I spent 10 days in the hospital in July for pneumonia and the flu and I can’t seem to get my strength back.I have shortness of breath.Just started Respatory therapy.Nothing seems to be working.Bronchiectasis and Mac is a killer.

I started big three Nov 2021 and lasted two weeks.Could not tolerate it .I am very slowly recovering from a 2 week hospital stay for pneumonia and the flu(did me in).I do airway clearance withAerobica 3 and 7%.Not using vest until I get my strength back.I also need a heart valve replacement.I also use Mucinex.I take a blast of albuterol and wondering if doing it with neb is better.No pressure but your advice is most important to me
