@scoop I must have it down low because when I lie down on the right side it comes up without a lot of trouble, particularly in the early afternoon after I exercise. I make it a point to lie down every day between 1 and 2 as part of the clearance. I have only been diagnosed with this about a year and a half, still learning.

@picartist scoop is correct as usual. The Radiologist who reads your CT should be able to pinpoint where in your lungs the Bronchiectasis has taken up residence.
If I nebulizer between 1 and 2 while laying down, I would soon be napping. Regarding that- our PCP who stays up on everything it seems, said at our age, it’s a good thing to get a good night’s sleep …even sleeping more than eight hours. Good sleep, a nutrient dense diet, exercising in moderation, and keeping a good attitude while having incurable Bronchiectasis and/ or a tough to treat mycobacterium is important.
