What is bronchiectasis, and why should you know about it? Untreated, it’s a chronic inflammatory lung disease that can worsen over time and may lead to lung damage, yet it can take years to be diagnosed. Bronchiectasis, or BE, affects the airways and can impact the lungs’ ability to clear mucus and bacteria. Approximately 500,000 people in the U.S. have been diagnosed with it, yet millions more may be living with the disease without knowing it.

Join us for an important conversation with pulmonologist Dr. Colin Swenson about bronchiectasis, the symptoms to be aware of, and what people experiencing unresolved respiratory symptoms should know.
