Could it be that your father was feeling somewhat light-headed from hyperventilating, in attempting to suck in the mist from the nebuliser? It is important to breath out fully in-between inhalations, and if one can hold the out breath for as long as possible, then this will help dilate the bronchia.
I think he needs to persevere with this protocol, and if the nebuliser only takes a few drops then double up or repeat a few times throughout the day.
