Yes, I had all the testing over 10 years ago. I couldn't find anyone locally to help me (Florida) so I ended up seeing Dr Koufman at the Voice Institute in NYC. She did all testing. I was a tough cookie and ended up with fundoplication surgery. That did the trick. I still follow all precautions.

The ENT that I saw 10 years ago was Dr. Koufman. She also referred me for consult for fundoplication but I didn't go through with it. I hadn't been diagnosed with bronchiectasis or NTM at that time. When I started care at NYU I scheduled a surgical consult to discuss possible fundoplication and the surgeon referred me for GI testing to determine eligibility. The Bravo didn't show significant reflux so that didn't go anywhere. I'm wondering about the chronology of your reflux treatment and your pulmonary condition(s).
