I used google search engine to find one.
Omron model# NE-C18: $ 79.51
NE-C21: $ 89.00 (this is the model I got)
http://www.ultrasonic-nebulizers.net/
but that was a couple of years ago now and the prices may not be the same.
Some states you need a prescription to buy one but sometimes you can get
them used on Ebay.
http://silverdata.20m.com/nebulizers.html some info about nebulizers.
Some do not come with masks and you might want one, but most you can breath
through mouth piece supplied.
You can also get A cool mist vaporizer has a rapidly spinning disk
that essentially "throws" a very fine mist into the air.
The better choice is an ultrasonic type. A small
electronic device (ultrasonic transducer) vibrates the
water at 25-40 kHz (kHz = 1000 times / sec) and
forms a very fine mist. The reason I say it is better is
because they sometimes come with a "warning" or
disclaimer that only distilled water should be used
because they also will pick up minerals in the water
and can cause a film (mineral deposit) to form on
nearby surfaces...exactly what we want!
As has been mentioned before, they can be had from
Wal-Mart. (Sunbeam brand) for $40. (not sure how old this info is)
One person got a nebulizer from eBay
for only $25. Check out this:

Property=MetaEndSort&query=nebulizer
another option if you have a suitable air compressor or use an O2
bottle all you would need is the mouthpiece (the
actual nebulizer and some suitable tubing. Of course,
you MUST ensure that the O2 or air compressor is
regulated to a very low pressure (1-2 or 4 psi???)
