Dry Bronchiectasis

Posted by maggyc @maggyc, Jan 26 10:33am

I have found information on a sub group of Bronchiectasis called Dry Bronchiectasis. After many years and diagnosis, Bronchiectasis came along. But I have no mucus or cough. I do have compromised PFT, but no huge impact on my daily life. By the way, I am 71 female. Is anyone else familiar with this concept of Dry Bronchiectasis? Meeting with my pulmonologist tomorrow and this is a bullet point. Thanks

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the MAC & Bronchiectasis Support Group.

I have mild bronchiectasis and have had little mucus since I got my post nasal drainage under control. I only do airway clearance daily since MAC cultures came back negative and I get nothing out. Mayo and my Penn doc are fine with daily. I’ve just made it part of morning routine when I read this site and emails. I know from CT’s that I have at least a bit in lungs and hope I’m moving it around enough to prevent further damage to my bronchial tubes.

Thanks for sharing. Good to know I’m not the only one who has found limited/no success on production🤪. Taking a break.
