Did you scare the reindeer? St Nick didn't stop here either – the combined "wreeping" of the current herd of 4 guinea pigs undoubtedly scared them away.
Merry Christmas to all!

"Wreeping." Sue, that's a term a word junkie can really appreciate. And thanks gej, but I'm getting plenty in the bargain. I'm more than a bit of an attention seeker. Don

Hmm, wonder if I can use it in Scrabble? Definitely their best attention-seeking or alarm sound! Right now they're all quietly enjoying their breakfast of fresh romaine lettuce.

Merry Christmas everyone and to Thumperguy for his cheery Christmas greeting that few outside this forum would appreciate. I thank everyone for sharing their experience and knowledge as I learned more about this disease and how to "help" my doctors manage it as well as possible. And thanks for the word – wreeping. I am an avid scrabble player and it's always nice to have a new word to play.
Wishing everyone a happy and healthy New Year!

Hi Kathy & Don – my husband and daughter say the are "wreeting" even though they clearly say "wreep, wreep, wreep" to me! That's what the herd greeted me with this morning when I delayed their breakfast by sleeping until 7:45. They also "wreep" when I use my nebulizer in the kitchen – my husband asked me to move it and I told him I will move when the piggies pay the bills.

I get the same reaction if I use my nebulizer in the kitchen!
To Jennifer (jr2366) – I know you were asking Sue how she adjusted but i thought I'd add my experience. I found the first few days/weeks to be the most challenging, in adjusting to airway clearance taking up to an hour in the morning and in the evening (after I decided to do it twice a day). I've come to accept that this will be a part of my life and I'd rather do this than be on medication again; I was on the Big 3 for 6 months before I developed tinnitus and lost hearing in my right ear. After hearing about other people's experience, I am grateful to be able to manage with just this twice daily imposition to my day.
I hope you will find this forum as helpful as I have as the information and support make this disease a little more tolerable.

Kathy if you don't mind my questions what did you mean by clearing airway experience and I only do my nebuzier with arikayce medication once a day is what dr prescribed. oh geez so this is a possibility as well the no hearing too I'm happy to be alive and there's medication however I'm still feeling the pain in my lung hopefully the medication will take care of that soon I'm hoping do ;you think so?

Hi Jennifer. My respirologist calls nebulizing "airway clearance" and I've started calling it that after 15 months. I use 7% saline in it; no medication. I started on 3% saline once a day when I went off the Big 3 and switched to 7% twice a day after reading about it on this forum. It has kept my lungs clearer than the Big 3 did (my bacteria count was 3+ when I stopped the meds and has been around 1+ or 0 since about 3 months on the saline). I'm hoping to stay off medication indefinitely or minimally until there is a medication specifically for MAC, as I have read here is in the development/trial process.
I have no experience with other medication (besides the Big 3) but you'll find many people on this forum can answer your question.
Take care,
