I know that I had a suction machine to clean out the trach and I used to have panic attacks that I couldn't breath. Once I got the trach out I remember having to suck out the muscus where the hole was for a very short time because the hole healed quickly. I still after almost 1 1/2 years have tons of muscus. Does anyone else still have alot of muscus after TX?
