How soon can you travel after bronchoscopy with BAL

I had a lung condition that required hospitalization and I had driven myself to the hospital. Since it was Labor Day Weekend, the staff held me over until the Tuesday after the weekend because they don't do bronchoscopies on holidays. I was released shortly after the bronchoscopy on Tuesday, but I was weak and needed someone to come pick me up from the hospital. I didn't feel strong enough to retrieve my car and to drive it for about 3 days afterwards. On the positive side, my lungs had not felt that wonderful in months after everything was cleared out. Everyone is different and you may recover more quickly. Best wishes!

Thanks for your response. I've read your lungs can possibly collapse if you fly too soon after a broncoscopy. I'm assuming because of the pressure changes in the cabin.
