Darrell,

Drink lots of fluid and try some guafienesen (Robitussin or generic). It will thin the stuff out and help you cough it up better. Spit it out at all costs. I had glasses full a day for a couple of months and still had some up to 4-5 months out. I still have some regularly but it is clear. Be careful, the stuff will really burn when you swallow it.
