Cavlover can you tell me how you managed to do all three at the same time. I’ve tried to do the saline and vest at the same time but I find it impossible to take a breath in while the vest is pounding my chest. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi Ivalenti. I do my vest and nebulize the 3% Sodium Chloride at the same time with no problem. I've actually increased the strength of the vest from what it was originally set on. I'm wondering if your intensity/power of the vest could be lowered so you can tolerate it better and hopefully you'll be able to build it up as your tolerance level improves. The brand of vest I have is Smartvest SQL. Seems there are several brands.
