I am so confused! I have COPD , also had TB a few years ago but wasn't aware I had bronchiectasis until it appeared on my records! believe me I know what it is now! My question is - do I take my antibiotics for a flare up of bronchiectasis? when I see the doctor I get conflicting information I.e., it's viral !! I know it's not viral, I have had 4 flare ups since January, one of which was infection (pseudomonas) which is lurking always, I have another which is the bronchiectasis?

Thank you for replying, I have bronchiectasis flare up at the moment but as far as I know I don't have a pseudo infection, my question is do I take my rescue antibiotics, I am feeling very tired and unwell, I know it's the bronch making me feel like this, I have the sticky phlegm, the raspy cough and generally fatigued .
