3 days of sample collected. Negative, however VERY little in each sample. I told my pulmonologist I was not confident of those results so he ordered bronchoscopy with lavage. That came back positive for MAC and asperillis (sp).

Sue - adding to my last….other than recent diagnosis of mild asthma based of breathing test ordered by pulmonologist prior to first appt, 8’ve never had any lung issues/illnesses other than the rare headcold (and those mostly sinus and not chest symptoms). And the asthma surprised me as I’ve never had any symptoms even though I’ve been physically active all my life.
