Welcome to our group. This sounds a lot like me 4 years ago - if this is new to you, you are probably feeling overwhelmed or a bit anxious.
Mayo Connect is a great place to get answers, or just to chat with people in your situation. Can you tell us about the beginning of your journey, like what led to the diagnosis? Have you been diagnosed with a specific infection? What diagnostic tool was used to determine you have bronchiectasis (CT, x-ray, bronchoscopy)?

Please feel free to ask questions, I have been where you are!
