Hello, I was diagnosed with MAC and bronchiectasis, and referred to an Infectious Disease doctor. But I do not have a pulmonologist, which seems like it would be appropriate for bronchiectasis.

Is it typical to not have a pulmonologist? And if I should have one, what do I need to do or say to be referred to one?

Also, should I be tested for any specific co-morbidities? What determines if doctors will recommend testing?

thank you for any insights, Laur
