@sdugan001 Have you ever been and is it possible for you to go to National Jewish Hospital in Denver, Colorado......or the Center @scoop has mentioned. I know a lot depends upon insurance, finances and time but it might be very beneficial for you if you can. Are you familiar with National Jewish Hospital? If you have time it might help to research it to understand why I am mentioning it and why I, myself, immediately took myself up there when I realized I needed their help vs the local pulmonologist who wasn't fully knowledgeable of all possible problems that come along with Bronchiectasis and what to have me start doing for myself to help myself.
We want for you to keep trying and finding your way to feeling better and getting the best help you can. We understand how you feel....this isn't easy and it is so much work.
Hope you have been having a better day of it today.
Barbara

@blm1007blm1007 Hi, this is actually something my pulmonologist has wanted me to do for quite some time. I even had an intro appointment over the phone with NJH a few months ago, but have not moved forward with it due to insurance/financial reasons. Ideally, going to NJH would be the goal. It is also difficult for me to find time to take off to go given my graduate school program. So I am sort of just stuck in this in between stage for now :/ I have a tentative appointment to get a chest CT tomorrow but it depends if it gets authorized in time/if I can even find a way home to make it.
