My CT showed no cancer spread but R upper and mid lobe bronchiectasis/fibrosis, treatment related — this is following 3 years of aggressive chemo and radiation following breast ca treatment. Anyone else experience this? Do I need to see a pulmonologist?

Hi @kee, and welcome. Great news on the all clear on breast cancer spread. Sorry to hear that you are now dealing with a new diagnosis of treatment-related bronchiectasis and lung fibrosis. You'll notice that I moved your message to this existing discussion. I did this so you can meet other breast cancer survivors who have experience with MAC and/or bronchiectasis like @pinkwarrior @jweisser @trixie1313 @src3acs @lnduh66 and @nick52.

Kee, you'll soon see that members in the MAC & Bronchiectasis forum highly recommend seeing a pulmonology specialist, preferrably one that has experience with MAC and bronchiectasis like the experts at NJH and Mayo Clinic.

Has a treatment plan been discussed with you yet?
