when do you bring up the most mucous?

[kswitch]

i am an am'er as well. a dose of hypertonic saline and albuterol with a nice, hot shower to start the day usually produces quite a bit of gunk.

i used to be a pm'er, but when i became more regular on the hydration and chest pt's i became an am'er. for me, i would dread the morning fits, and stifle my coughs, so it took the whole day to loosen it up. now that it's a good consistency, some work to clear the pools in the morn, and just maintenance the rest of the day!!

Count me in the A.M. Squad. I get up quite a bit of nasty gunk in the morning, sometimes enough to fill up two of those little dixie cups (thanks in part to the HS). Its not fun, but usually for the rest of the day, I feel fine.

Kj has hypertonic saline morning and night. It doesn't really make her cough much.

maybe her lungs are too glugged up in the morning and need the movement during the day to loosen it up.

i produce more sputum in the morning! i can easily fill a cup up when i first wake up. when i wake i have my meropenem neb, which really helps. i find if i stay in bed longer and sleep, i produce even more sputum. thats why i try to wake up at a reasonable time each morning.
