Yes, I agree that this forum has been so informative and helpful!! I'm so grateful to Sue and others! I have Bronchiectasis, Mac abscessus and possibly Aspergillus(positive tested but been treated).
The Saline was a huge game changer for me! I am religious about using it twice a day along with bronchodilator and steroid inhaler. Even when I travel!! In the past 3 years my CT has improved greatly with some areas completely "resolved" My PFT has also improved each time. My immune system is much better too. I am very active and also try to keep informed and try new things. I also have been on NAC forever.....even before diagnosis plus an array of "whole food" supplements.(Agree with Sue, be cautious and do your homework on supplements.) Glutathione, but only sublingually, and a product I love...Biocidin....you just have to read up on that. Also sublingual. Airway clearance twice a day. Exercise daily!! At least 30 minutes....just added a rebounder to my regiment and I love it. This clears lymph system and really gets your heart rate up. It's sometimes a struggle to juggle it all. My husband has Alzheimer's and Lewybody and I am his caregiver too. I want to stay healthy to care for him. Dodging respiratory illnesses is the challenge! Especially this time a year. We are a target for that. I say don't give up or become despondent... try to fight.......everyone is different and you might have to experiment but can hopefully you can improve your quality of life! Blessings in the new year!
