Right lung burning sensation

Posted by vegita182 @vegita182, Jan 11 12:22am

I’ve had a right lung burning sensation that comes and goes throughout the day for over a year along with fatigue and feverishness that also comes and goes. One sputum sample just came back positive for MAC, has anyone else experienced this?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the MAC & Bronchiectasis Support Group.

bronchiectasis with chronic infection/ inflammation from the bacteria I am colonized with.

Yes, me too. I feel congested and heaviness in the right lung around noon. That is the time that I do airway clearance and after clearing mucus, I feel lighter and less congested. I read that it is infection & inflammation.
