Once a day, 4-5 times a week. I up this to daily if I get any kind of congestion, virus, etc. And twice a day during an exacerbation. This "slacker" schedule came about after my last pulmo visit, where my lungs looked their best in 5 years, with the consent of my doc. It also coincided with a change in my asthma meds that reduced those symptoms to almost nothing.

Sue. I started nebulizing for a couple days (saline). Today, little balls came up too. Any comments? I’m so scared Sue.

Sue could you please explain to me why the mucus is formed in there and you have to clear it out every day? Does the bacteria cause the mucus to produce?
It’s a good thing when the mucus comes up when you nebulize and use the flutter… Correct? But then it kind of replenishes and you have to do it again the next day and the next day ad infinitum?
