Thanks for information. I will go on the link you provided.

This morning woke up with coughing up mucus from bronchial area. If exhale all the way can hear a wheezing sound in my bronchial area. Have no explanation for the flare up. But the more I cough the more the bronchial ares gets irritated.

Tried using Atrovent as seems to work better than Aberutrol. It took a while but improved the wheezing and thus the coughing up or mucus.

Have appointment with ENT (ear nose throat) this week and next week PCP. Got to do something as can't keep having my bronchial area taking such a beating.

Had pulmonary tests months ago and pulmonolgist did not find asthma or the cause. But no follow up by him. My ENT and PCP though are still trying to find cauese and treatments.

Hi, I was initially told that an x-ray indicated that I had pneumonia. Once hospitalized there was some uncertainty after a CAT scan was completed. A second CAT scan done one month later showed that I had bronchiectasis. Can you tell your PCP or pulmonologist that you would like a CAT scan completed?
