Hi! I have bronchiectasis, MAC and Aspergillus...Aspergillus treated a year ago, never treated for MAC because I have been very healthy, active with good numbers. I contracted HMPV at Christmas though and became very, very sick. Hospitalized. Took 2 months to recover and I am about where I was but Aspergillus back and MAC now morphed into sub species abscessus. Discussing options now with 2 pulmonary in Houston area. Here is my question. It was recommended I try to to set up telemedicine /2nd opinion appointments with Mayo and NJH. Is anyone familiar with this type appointment? My husband has early Alzheimer's and all the logistics coming and going can be overwhelming especially if I am tied up there. Please let me know if anyone has info on this. I am not sure if I posted this correctly 😎 I have never asked a question before! Thank you!

Hi, I did telemedicine a couple of times during Covid, it was helpful to have my list of questions written down and to check off as they were answered. I didn’t do this, but it may be helpful to have a medical type friend in the room to take notes.
