@eileen86 - @cwal gives a good explanation. BUT...you can slow down the progression of damage by careful management. This includes frequent airway clearance, promptly recognizing and treating any infection/exacerbation, avoiding your personal "triggers", and taking REASONABLE precautions.

How do we do this?
Follow the most current treatment/management guidelines from the recognized experts like:
NTMinfo.org
National Jewish Health (NearionalJewish.org)
recognized experts in the field like Doctors Pamela McShane, Jennifer Honda and Joe Falkinhma

I have bronchiectasis and abpa and went out of town for 6 weeks. Usually i have trouble coughing up sputum after nebulizing and airway clearance but during the 6 weeks I coughed up alot of jade green sputum every evening. Should I of called in antibiotics even though i did not have a fever?
