@cindyrue...I'd go with your gut on this one. Your intuition that there is more damage than just the bronchiectasis can give you the energy to make changes.
You need a thorough testing and diagnostic experience that National Jewish Hospital or Mayo Clinic can provide. If you are being followed by a pulmonologist, s/he is only concerned with the lungs. Get copies of all your records and CT scans so that whomever you consult will have all the information.
More info on your symptoms would help us help you. Could you describe your journey and symptoms?

I get out of breath easily and am tired alot. I cough every day and cough up green/yellow stuff. I am trying to exercise on treadmill every day if I can to keep up my endurance.
