My pulmonary Dr hasn't even mentioned airway clearance, I had to beg to get 3% saline solution for my nebulizer. Best practice medicine I feel is a referal to a respiratory therapist to keep well, I have lentiflavin, no nodules or holes and want to stay that way!

Airway clearance is on of the pillars of managing bronchiectasis,
so a pulmonologist who does not mention it is not familiar with the current standards of care. This is not uncommon. In spite of the impression you may get reading here, bronchiectasis is a rare condition. If want the best care to stay healthy fot the long term perhaps it is time to seek a doctor who regularly sees bronchiectasis and MAC patients.
Do you have options for seeing a different doctor?
