Hi Faye - My pulmo says the same, but shrugs and prescribes it anyway. I figure if NJH, Mayo and UT Tyler all say 7%, their collective experience tips the scale for me. My primary also told me she would do it if the pulmo didn't.

Hi Sue. Regarding our posts of July 14th about getting our pulmo doc to write Rx for 7% Sodium Chloride. I went ahead and purchased 7% from Amazon and began 4 days ago mixing 1/2 of 3% and 1/2 of 7% to get adjusted. Hopefully that I can use it without getting a strained throat feeling or too much coughing. It did bring on some coughing the first day but it only lasted for about 30-40 mins. The second day I did cough up a small amount of some dark green (formed) but nothing since. Will go to full 7% this next week. Thanks for all your wisdom. Faye
