I will be interested in following this thread of discussion. I too have bronchiectasis without MAC so far. I also have colitis that was originally diagnosed as lymphocytic colitis and most recently after a colonoscopy with biopsies was told it is now "eosinophilic colitis" and there is not much information on this and it is not seen very often at all. They did allergy testing ( 51 sticks) but did not really have any reaction except a slight one for some different nuts. The elevation of eosinophils is in the large intestine but not in the blood so far. Is yours is your blood count?

Hi gej53,
My high eos% count is in my blood. I caught pneumonia this Feb. My eosinophils count was high in my blood test. Then it went down by itself. My primary doctor, pulmonologist and hematologist thought it was triggered by the antibiotics treating pneumonia. But recently I got a bacterial infection, and eosinophils count is high again. After the treatment, it remains high.
The Pulmonologist believes I might have eosinophils related asthma. I also did an allergy test on 32 sticks, and I was allergic to nothing.
