@coffcoff that scares me because I'm about to have a bronchoscopy. How bad was the infection you got? My pulmonologist doesn't seem particularly wary about me having it. My second opinion was to bring up sputum which I seem unable to do.

@cressida92 Go ahead and have the bronch if it's what you need to do to diagnose MAC. Then be diligent about twice-daily airway clearance. The bronch probably won't make you sick. When I had one I was already pretty debilitated, which is why I got an infection afterwards. We all have to do what we have to do and then hope for the best.
