Hi Joan. That sounds just a little too frequent. Do you think you may need to take Mucinex once a day or some type of allergy medication, like Claritin or ???

That is a warning sign. You need to talk to your pulmonologist, you might need an adjustment on your medication. or you're not totally getting over the infection and it keeps popping back up. Either way see your doctor.
