Hi,
I am wondering if anyone can help with information on thinning out thick secretions. My adult son has a type of muscular dystrophy that causes thick secretions that he has to spit up. Due to his restrictive lung disease,he has no ability to cough it up,so we use cough assist,the vest and percussion. We also use pulmozyne and xopanax breathing medication but donot, get much relief. Does anyone have any ideas you have used that work? Thank you for any ideas Joanne
