You've found a good place here to ask questions and get support. Welcome.
Sorry to read of your husband's troubles. Recently established is a care network with link below on where to find help from experts in bronchiectasis and NTM. Perhaps you will say where you're located and others might chime in with their experience in your geography. If nothing is close by some decide to travel to the experts, which can be very worthwhile. They are spread across the USA so hopefully you'll find one not too far from home.

A question for you: Is your husband practicing airway clearance everyday? Airway clearance can go along way in helping to avoid reinfection.

Scoop I know there was a lot of bronchiectasis and NTM care centers posted. I even took a picture of it but cannot find it. My pulmonologist at NWMedicine is retiring starting in September and I am looking for a be and MAC doctor in Chicago area. She might refer me to someone but still need options. Thank you

Thank you for the information! I will definitely read it. We are located in Birmingham, Alabama.I saw a mention of airway clearance on this site, but we have never heard of it. How do you find out about it? We just don’t feel like we’re getting anywhere.
