Thanks Ode. We found an inhaler around her from former usage -- and it had a removable plasic mouthpiece that fit perfectly over the output port on the Medisana. Worked great, and problem solved.
And you were right in recommending that unit -- I'm glad I took your advice.

[no mention of that on the outside] You can put your mouth right on it or inhale near it or form a flexible hose to attach to it. They make for an inexpensive very good high volume unit.

They felt fine after the first day, but did it the second day to make sure it was all gone. Of course, they started immediately as soon as they started feeling bad. it may take longer if your husband has waited longer. Samala, Renee So -- we're going to try nebulizing EIS. Having never done this before, I need to know -- do we use EIS full-strength? Also -- how much, how often, etc. -- general guidelines. TIA. MA
