How many of us have/use their cough assist machine faithfully? The RT came out today and brought mine, taught me how to use it. OMG! It almost sucked me off of the dining room chair, (then about blew me onto the floor)
Just kidding, but even the RT laughed. WOW! He gave me a mouth piece to try biting down on, and clamping my lips onto it with my fingers, and also a full face mask, which covers my nose, and I just hold it against my face with my hands. We both agreed it was a better choice, as air was leaking out my nose with the mouth piece one.
Anyway, I was just curious how many are faithful in using theirs? Its so big, I've got to find somewhere to keep it. I don't have to do breath stacking, it does it for me. its a marvel.
