Does anyone nebulize hypertonic saline or use the Vest while exercising? I have a treadmill at home and wonder if there could be benefits to doing it all at the same time. Thanks!

A B S O L U T E L Y!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have been doing it for about 1.5 years. It has made such a difference.
Lung function has increased 15%.
I almost never miss a day, it is much more effective to nebbie hypertonic on a treadmill.

Interesting to hear that some people are doing this. I personally haven't but am now considering it. I have told my husband for years that there is so much we (CF patients) have to do and it takes so much time out of our day. I think it would be great to get it all done at once. So my idea was to invent a treadmill with a built in nebulizer and vest machine. That way you can take your meds, do the vest treatment and get exercise all at the same time. Hate to see the cost on that one. At the least I am going to look into getting all the equipment set up to make it possible. Right now I read or play solitaire on my Ipad while I do the vest and meds.

Deb, I think this is a great point bc it's so easy to skip the workout as we feel like we already spend so much of our day dedicated to cf and exercise just seems like one more thing.

When we nebulize with our daughter we are supposed to do exercises on the pezzi ball. The effect should be that she is breathing deeper and stretches her lungs. So I guess using a traedmill or maybe an indoor bycicle would be a great thing to do. I don't know the vest but can you not wear it while cycling or walking the treadmill?
