thoroscopy-sugery for bronchiectasis

[Guest guest]

HI FOLKS,

i have bronciteasis right from my child hood , now iam 30 yrs of age

and the doctor is

telling me to do the surgary to remove a part of the right lower

lobe of my lungs(which

looks like a small cavity when the CT scan taken), he is telling me

that he can do a

thoroscopy(key hole surgery for thorax) for this .I am very scared to

do the surgery as i

dont know what will happen after few months/Yr if it is a bilateral

bronchitasis.

as of now i have to cough up the mucus every frequent interval to

keep me safe from

infection and this is difficult for me because because i am working

for an IT

department..it is also difficult to perform a healthy normal life.

Pls advice if its good to do the surgery and after will i be allright.

I also would like to know if there is there is any

techniques/breathing exrecises/medices to

cough up the mucus easely.
