Sue,
Thanks for reaching out. It is a new diagnosis after two years of progressive coughing. The pulmonologist initially called it chronic bronchitis but we are waiting for follow up consultation after first run of tests at Mayo.
Dr. is our of country until January but started her on Roflumilast based on what CTs showed. He also prescribed 600 mg N-Acetyl Cysteine to thin mucus

That is is great that you are on track to figure this out. There are so many causes for coughs, and lung disorders are frequently overlapping. Mayo is a great place to be when dealing with complelung conditions. I am happy to hear the doc has recommended NAC for thinning mucus. The evidence that is helps is mounting. It has helped me for over 2 years-I am suffering my first exacerbation of 2023. I think I jinxed myself by mentioning a few weeks ago how well I am doing.
Does the doc have her doing any airway clearance?
