I’m so anxious about the risks involved to start with. But the new Dr that’s going to do it will set up appointment with me first to explain everything.

@dalelieberman3 , I'm sure it helps to know the next step, but it comes with a new set of questions too. I've added a Mayo Clinic link regarding bronchoscopies:
https://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/bronchoscopy/about/pac-20384746
The procedure is generally well tolerated. I'm losing track, but I think I've had 4 bronchoscopies over the past five years. None were close to my heart, so I didn't have that added risk.
Is the procedure doctor that you'll be meeting with a pulmonologist?
