I'm a registered nurse, was just wondering how many other people with Bronchiectasis happen to be nurses.

    Hi Frogwartz. I am not a nurse but I have met one who is. She happened to be taking my particulars for another unrelated hospital appointment and started quizzing me intensely about my experience with BX. She looked to be about 56 ish years old and told me that in order to be accepted for nursing in the first place, it was necessary for her to have the worst affected part of her lung removed. Like the rest of us she was soldiering on "manfully"! Good luck!
