National Jewish Health Appt

BE since 2012. Positive for MAC December 2025 from sputum culture. Referred to NJH, and appointments are currently scheduled for May 2026. A local pulmonary specialist performed a bronchoscopy in January 2026. The bronchoscopy culture was NEG for MAC, but I was positive for Pseudomonas.

NJH said that I can continue with my appointment if I want to. My local doctor said they felt confident to manage the BE.

I am a thin, 59-year-old female (more susceptible to MAC) and run a horse farm, where I cut 14 acres of grass, clean horse stalls, etc.

I can't decide whether to keep my appointment at NJH. I would really like to educate myself on how to keep myself healthy, etc.
