Hello Cheryl, When we have bronchiectasis, our lungs are essentially petri dishes, ready to grow bacteria, because they do not effectively clear mucus.
Aspergillus is a bit more uncommon, but infectious disease docs are the right ones for treating it.
When you were diagnosed, was it by a pulmonologist, or your primary provider?
Were you given any instruction about airway clearance to keep more infections from settling in?
