Hi thanks for your response. I did put in a request. It’s just strange After Mac diagnosed and hospital stay the 2019 reports vanished off my portal. The other 2 broncosopy on on there 22 and 23. Could the cultures been wrong. Not enough sputum or contamination. Since hospital doctor has been overly compliant with everything. I just feel I smell a rat. Lol

NTM's are extremely hard to diagnose and treat. I've been in this game for over 5 years with many, many Doctors and facilities (including NJH) and they are still guessing but are keeping me alive and active. Concentrate on getting better, not on revenge. Go to another pulminologist that does cover NTM's ans add an ID Dr if you don't have one.

I worked in health care for about 40 years. I’d be completely shocked if those records were destroyed. Med record folks are held to very high standards in protecting them. As someone else suggested, due to time, they may be in another folder or archive. Just contact the med record (maybe IT) department at the facility with the test and they can help you locate them.
