@yerrag not producing enough mucous - yes - with bronchiectasis the mucous isn't flowing normally due to the distended tissue at the base of my lungs. I cough up lumps.
Medication I take: ciclesonide and montelukast.
I sneeze all year round so I take antihistamines when I get fed up with it. It's quite anti social and tiresome.
I didn't take the ciclesonide one day and I think that resulted in the minimal bleeding. The bleeding is no longer presenting. I'm pretty sure that has happened before. I have scarring at the top of my lungs too - they feel scratchy and become productive if I miss the ciclesonide.
I do have a nebuliser which I bought myself. I'm in the UK. You only get to see a consultant if you're declining and having much difficulty. I could pay if course but I know what they'll say......
They'd never prescribe NAC here for my condition. I think they do for other lung issues.
I don't expect a cure. I seem to have managed better than expected. Yes I do remember talking about seretonin and the lungs....
I do wake every two hours with hot flushes.
I did read some of your traumatic situation last year and am delighted you are now well! Quite an ordeal.
Thank you for taking the time to respond.
