Anyone not inhaling antibiotics?

I haven't inhaled any antibiotics in probably over 15 years. I remember doing inhaled Tobi one time in my teens.

I'm doing fine without them, so I'm glad to not be on any.

I went off of Tobi for a while, ( close to a year) and recently got back on it and it seems to be ok now.
As for oral antibiotics, if you take them in combos of 2 or 3 the chance of resistance is dramatically lowered. They also work synergistically. I am on oral antibiotics at all times usually a combo of 2 or 3 at a time. I rotate them every two weeks to ward off resistance. Having cepacia i am resistant to all orals, but synergistically they help.

I don't inhale HS. I didn't think it did anything for me but give me a dry, irritated cough. I used to inhale Pulmozyme every day, twice a day. However, we found out that it was the cause of my lung bleeds. I tried to do without it for about a year, but my pfts kept dropping. I recently started again, and bam, pfts went back up. However, I am only doing it once a day on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays. Seems to be enough to keep me clear, yet not cause any bleeding.
