If you feel that way, I'd look for a new pulminologist. Why did they order a HRCT?

Yes, I'd love to have a new pulmonologist. However, I'm very limited on choice where I live. There are only 2 different groups and the current group I am with will not let you change to a different physician within that group. So, if I do switch to someone in the other group and they also end up being of the same temperament as my current physician then I'm back at square one if that group has the same policy. I'm am currently trying to find some "inside" info about the other group that may help my decision.

Also, as I understand it, a HRCT is the better diagnostic tool in conditions such as MAC. ??
