Sue, I have written before about my pulmonologist being resistant to the 7% saline. Do you think I should book in with my infectious disease dr? Or, do you have any info that might show documented benefits of 7%?

Take a look at this article - you might want to print and share with him.

A consult with your ID doc might be in order or a discussion with the pulmo about their objection.
Also, at this point in time, I think if a pulmonologist is still not on board with the benefits of 7% saline, they may not be really experienced in treating MAC, because it is now a solid recommendation by centers of excellence like National Jewish Health (NJH) and Mayo Clinics.
