Results from my bronchoscopy - any ideas?

Hey guys,

Just a little update,

I had my Bronchoscopy done over a week ago and got a call from the hospital Friday to ask me to go in Monday afternoon (tomorrow) to discuss my results as there back.

I am little nervous as to why I’m going in.

As far as I know she didn’t do any biopsy’s just a B/wash of my lungs and removed the mucus buildup that was inside ( which made my CT scan look abnormal) reason why I had it. I was sedated so I briefly member her saying that and I know it a biopsy was done I would of had to have an X-ray after which I didn’t.

Has anyone had this before and I know with a BWash they send the cells/mucus to the lab. Just keep getting these calls after my CT scan then now this to come in just makes me so nervous.

Still waiting for my urgent appointment with the rheumatologist that was 3 weeks ago shall I chase this up?

Many thanks

Many thanks

Stacey

Perhaps chase the rheumatologist if you have time in the morning.

Then see what’s said about your bronchoscopy.

Take a pen and paper and write down what they say.

It’s really hard to remember sometimes when you are stressed.try and do something pleasant today if you can to take your mind off things a bit

They might want to go over the results as well as the implications regarding autoimmune diagnosis and treatment. That should be done in a face to face setting.

Hope it goes well. Let us know.
