Anyone familiar with pH balanced 7% saline, rather than acidic type?

Thank you so much. What are you using now? You once told me I can get it from Sam's club, right? After reading your post, I think I might have damaged lining of my airways. I also lay flat on my back and do deep breathing, so that the mucus moves up and cough up. I think the lining of my airways got damage while mucus are moving up due to its acidity. My airways are very dry now and it is worst in the mornings. Please advise me again on the saline you use from Sams club.

@sweethighland I get PulmoSal 7% from Sam's club. I also lie on my back as part of airway clearance, for me it is a very effective sputum producer. I do not believe sputum is acidic and would not cause damage to your airways. Make sure to have an empty stomach when you are lying on your back trying to get the sputum up. Less likely to have reflux come up and cause problems.
