@spider109 I believe that too. And now, as a result of "incidental" findings of Bronchiectasis when doing screening lung scans on previous smokers, I believe that radiologists are more apt to recognize it too. My own Bronchiectasis was diagnosed from a lung x-ray many years after my symptoms began. I later learned that the CNP "didn't like what she saw" on an x-ray for pneumonia, and had the pulmonologist in the clinic look at it.
