Sue, you have helped me beyond measure today. My intuition has told me that my pulmonary is NOT familiar enough with MAC ! You verified that.
I am taking your suggestions I. E. Mucinex etc.
I am seeing the local infectious disease doctor in April ( referred by my pulmonary), I will find out the results of what germ exactly that I have.
I really want to do the saline thing now, why wait four more weeks? Do you know…
1. Do I need to get a script for the saline, and 2. What percentage saline should I use? 3. How often per day?
It’s clear my pulmonary doesn’t support the saline, he wants the steroid…can my primary prescribe the saline? Is it a mystery that only a pulmonary can prescribe?
I am very encouraged that you think the flutter is doing it’s job. Now I’m not scared. Your suggestions are gold to me. I actually slept peacefully last night for the first time in months. My anxiety is quelled from talking to you and others in this wonderful support group, who have helped me by sharing their experience, strength and hope.
I am planning to go to the University of North Carol8na Chapel Hill pulmonary…….after I see this local infectious disease Dr. I feel better knowing that….Dee has been instrumental in that and she is a real blessing in my life, as are all the other people who have been responding to my blog questions. I am so grateful to God and to all of you.
