@mame I go to UMASS Worcester. I don’t know if that’s closer than Mass General for you. I see Dr. Gallant as my pulmonologist, Dr. Sood as my surgeon, and Dr Wessolossky in infectious disease. I can’t say enough good things about that team of doctors. Dr. Gallant is great for a person with bronchiectasis. Good luck wherever you land. ( irene5)

Thank you. Worcester is farther than Boston but I have not heard anyone comment about mass General in Boston yet. I was diagnosed with MAC 6 years ago and pulmonologist suggested not treating, wait & see. Did very well for several years and then I’ve had about 7 various antibiotics in the last year for colds culminating in pneumonia in April. I had a broncoscopy post pneumonia in June and MAC results still not back. Almost 8 weeks! I see my pulmonologist on Wednesday, wondering what he will say. I just found this group this week and am learning SO much!!!
Thanks for replying and I wish you well on your recovery.
