Since my diagnosis last year, I've been prescribed carbocisteine, and I taken two, twice a day, and three times when I do have a chest infection. They do help.

my resp nurse called i today, so i asked her about this, she said if i phoned the doc, explained that the resp nurse told me too, i would get a four week trial prescription of this, [as if it wasnt going to work in four weeks it wont work for me at all],,,, so hopefully this prescription will be delivered tomorrow or friday, so will see how i get on with it,,, the phlem or mucus is clear, but very difficult to bring up.
