@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?

Hi, the dr I’m meeting with tomorrow is an interventional pulmonologist.
Hoping things will be explained fully. I have pages of questions.
After I meet & hear everything, I’ll be able to make a more educated decision.
Thanks for talking with me, so appreciated! Be well!
