@rlynnh please don’t cry - although if you want to go ahead. You might feel more tired but at least you will let go of some frustration. So first of all because you have bronchiectasis you are prone to getting every bug that’s floating around. Was your sputum checked? Did you have a bronch? A rule of thumb for most people with bronchiectasis is a MWF dose of azithromycin to ward off frequent infections. My husband has sarcoid and is on that cocktail. I get every bacteria out there and am on levoquin instead. Plus I’ve had MAC and aspergillosis and RSV and pseudomonas- so see it is a good idea to be on something ! We are at risk because we have bronchiectasis! That’s why nebulizing is important as well - to get the junk out of there. Good luck. Feel better please. So sorry. Irene5
