Hi Penelope,
I have been going through this since September of last year. I have had 3 CT scans which showed a lot of tree buds and also one upper right nodule of 12 mm which is now 9.5 mm and a 19 mm lower right nodule treated with antibiotics and prednisone because it was thought to be an infection. Had a Bronchoscopy on 1/23/24 test for MAC and other things. Six weeks results said no MAC no bacteria. I thought six weeks was early to diagnose but was told that liquid mycobacterium cultures are only kept for six weeks. Sorry, I am rambling, I am still coughing like crazy and was sent to a allergist because of high eosinophils and Ige levels. Was told I have asthma due to allergies and was given an inhaler, that was yesterday! In the meantime, I still have two nodules that have not been biopsied because they believe it was a infection but there was no infection because courses of antibiotics did not work. I know asthma can cause coughing but I don’t know about nodules! Seeing pulmonary doctor on the 21st. I just don’t know to do anymore!
