I’ve been having some discussions and disagreements on how thick, discolored mucus and reduced lung function should be treated. My former pulmonologist would have be take antibiotics until I had no mucus or it was clear/white.
My current pulmo and his PA insist that 3 days of Zithromycin 500mg should knock out any bacterial infection and feel that is plenty.
I’m concerned as I’ve had bouts where I had discolored thick mucus for weeks and months and really feel taking only 3 days of antibiotics I’d like a thimble if water on a forest fire.
Anyone with thoughts and feedback from their MDs?
