Close Anonymous Unfriend Friend Requested Friend Load More Close Destination Page Area Group Destination Content Title Title Article Type Copy comments My local doc is encouraging me to try this vest that apparently pounds on you to help get out the mucus. It's previously primarily been used for cystic fybrosis patients. My VA docs don't think it is necessary because I'm still able to cough up what crud I have, and frankly I don't do a lot of that. Has/does anyone else around here used a vest for copd/emphysema issues? What was your experience? In any case, I'm pretty sure I don't want to use one of these until my cracked ribs get a bit better. Thanks. --- John in Oregon
