I've had a cough for a long time. My allergist told me it was asthma. My husband kept on bugging me to get another opinion. Just to get him off my back, I went to a pulmonologist. I passed the breathing test easily, but the chest x-ray was suspicious. The CRT indicated broncheastasis,and the bronchoscopy confirmed that as well as MAC. I have just started the antibiotics course of treatment.
