That definitely makes sense.
Yes I probably should see a specialist. I’m 3 hours away from Mayo Clinic in Rochester. Thank you so much

Mayo was great and had me meet with a nurse educator about airway clearance.

My initial pulmonologist helped get my horrid cough from sinus drainage under a bit better control, but didn’t mention the bronchiectasis on second CT and was “watching.” He went o medical leave and I became impatient to get a diagnosis and plan.
Just FYI, I called Mayo and they suggested I call on a Monday afternoon or Tues a m to try to snag a cancellation and it worked. I had a bunch of tests and a bronch within a week. Med changes followed.
I’m following with Penn med now and am much improved.
