Hello everyone!
I have noticed over the past couple of weeks that I have had increased chest congestion in the mornings. It is to the point that for up to 2 hours every morning, I am coughing constantly until my chest "loosens up." For the rest of the day, I will usually just cough occasionally. It is just very frustrating and exhausting, not to mention that I can't get anything done during this time. In the morning, I take albuterol and pulmozyme while using the vest. Also I use Advair inhaler. I was just wondering if anyone has had this situation and found out anything that helps. My last tune up was over 2 years ago, so I don't know if that might help, or if some prednisone might help. I have a check up at my CF clinic in a couple weeks. Thanks!
