Ben just has a little virus where he fevered in the middle of it and threw me for a loop. We just watched and did extra CPT like you. It took about a week after the active part (7-10 days) to go back to regular mucus levels with no junk. Neither our clinic or pediatrician would give an antibiotic and I am so glad to see they really wait until necessary, because he cleared it fine. But I know what you mean. When my nonCfer gets sick I just never doubt she'll get through it...I hesitate and watch like a hawk with Ben.
We do inhaled GSH which I feel helps tremendously wiht colds and keeping the lungs clear of mucus. He has been on it for a year with great results (weight and appetite has steadily increased and no antibiotics since he was 15 months old). He cultures staph but hasn't cultured PA again since starting the treatments. It may be something to research and compare with Mucomist (which is basically NAC a precursor to GSH). We continue to watch the Nac research. Oral GSH will also increase the levels if not comfortable with inhaled. Something to discuss. I know a few people whose Dr. is supportive of trying it and seeing how it goes.
