Thank you Dee!!
I will look up about the NTMs, and I'm not sure what I have yet. I see infectious diseases on Tuesday. But I have a cavity in my lung that's 3.2 CM by I don't think I've seen anyone on here with that big of a cavity yet. I'm grateful I don't have symptoms yet except for I am short on broth sometimes, then there's other times I feel like I can breathe good. But no coughing or night sweats are losing weight, or fatigue. I actually feel pretty good. I'm hoping that they can get treatment started as soon as my surgery is over on the 4th. I will definitely go to that website, I'm trying to get as much info as I can. Thank you for all your kind words and I appreciate that you took the time to write to me. Thank you so much! Angela

Hi Angela!
Do you mind me asking where you are located?
I ask for 2 reasons…
National Jewish Health is the Gold Star for lung issues. They are located in Denver, Colorado. They specialize in NTM& Bronchiectasis and tons of people will recommend them to you. They are thorough and comprehensive in their care because it’s ALL they do.
Secondly, I am part of an another support group that meets via Zoom. They set them up geographically, I think. I could check and see if there is one in your area.
