LPR - anyone managed to tame or cure this condition?
Recent
bronchoscopy
has confirmed that it is LPR. I am maxed out on esomeprazole and from 3 weeks ago swapped from peptac to Gaviscon Advance. Also, have domperidone with main meal of the day.

My mom is on a ventilator again.
After about a week they decided to do a
bronchoscopy
. Took her off the paralytic. After the scope she has went down hill, they raised her peep to 20 and can't seem to get it back down. Now it's at 20 they can't put her on her stomach any longer.

Will lower dose of Nintedanib stop the terrible side effects?
After a long wait, a
bronchoscopy
and endless CT scans and lung function tests, I finally started on the standard dose of 2 x 150 mg Nintedanib at the end of February. The first few weeks weren’t too bad, my gut was unhappy and I experienced the expected diarrhoea. Took Imodium as advised.

ILD and pulmonary hypertension caused by sjogrens
They did a
bronchoscopy
and my lungs were so inflamed they couldn’t take a sample for fear my lung would collapse. I desaturated during op and had to be brought back. I read that sjogrens can cause ILD and pulmonary hypertension is an extension.

CLL in treatment and possible long Covid and managing isolation
CT scan showed "white areas" of ground glass attenuation and a "mass" in the lungs, so pulmonologist ordered a
bronchoscopy
during which he took five biopsies. All came back with nothing serious - just some 'scarring.'

Daughter’s lung biopsy
A repeat
bronchoscopy
was carried out last Friday and the area is still inflamed although not got any bigger. The description was that it looked chronic. We are waiting for results of a biopsy. Can anyone relate to this, I’m obviously so concerned.

I got my lung diagnosis after an excruciating wait, and it was a shock!
I had a
bronchoscopy
that showed increased lymphocytes but not an awful lot else that was diagnostically significant. My team were beginning to discuss some scary potential causes, such as rheumatoid related conditions and maybe even cancer.

Frustrated/Scared - Would love some advice
I was referred to the Respiratory team who did a
Bronchoscopy
early 2023 and nothing was found. I was subsequently diagnosed with Asthma due to an elevated Feno test and sent on my way. The only thing that has improved since taking an inhaler is the cough, that is gone now.

28 years old - recent Bronchiectasis diagnosis
Diagnosed originally with severe asthma, recurrent infections following a
bronchoscopy
and sputum samples. I am quite shocked about my diagnosis given that this is something which is not treatable.

Second update on old, alone, sick and afraid
Long story short on Wednesday the 19th they did a
bronchoscopy
in order to do a biopsy on my lung tissue. On Thursday I came home.

am I doing the right thing?
I have suspected lung cancer and am waiting for result of EBUS
bronchoscopy
. I’ve been monitored with CT Scans for the past 18 months. There are 2 suspect nodules that have recently grown. I was supposed to have my right upper lung lobe removed early December.

3 years trouble breathing, still no diagnosis, always depressed
I asked for a
Bronchoscopy
or a Lavage, he said he would not do it as according to him which he bases off all these tests, there is nothing indicating that there is mucus or anything in my airways.

Wait time for surgical lung biopsy results
I had a
bronchoscopy
done in October which showed I had a high leukocyte count but not much else. My doctors are all very stumped, I’m in my early 30’s and have never smoked, and apart from a little bit of a cough and some occasional breathlessness, I don’t have any symptoms.

Sats low during flight + CFTR variant unknown significance
Currently (still) waiting to see my new respiratory team for long-standing lung issues that aren’t asthma, having had a number of tests (but not
bronchoscopy
).

Hello, I'm new on here
Up to now he has had a PET CT and
bronchoscopy
/EBUS,which was 11 days ago. How long does it normally take for a patient normally to receive an appt with the Oncologist. I know they have to have an MDT meeting first.i m just so worried about him.
