    If they don't find any issues in the trachea I'd imagine the bronch will be the next test.
    Does anyone know, would any of the areas of stenosis show up in a chest xray?

    Prob not by x-ray. Best way to know for sure is to go down and look.

    As far as having an infection goes, congrats...easy fix for the most part. And, since I'm on a roll this week, isn't 'Anti Biotics' better than 'Uncle Pred'?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?! Who let me in this place?! You all know I'm just having fun, my way of dealing with things!! Go get'em Sam!

    They are still looking at possible TS. Infection is a minor setback

    Oh, sorry to hear that. I hope it's not. I know, with me, lots of gunk gets into my windpipe and I can breathe a lot better once it's coughed up! I can see how the infection could increase the mucus and the sensation of breathing problems, excess coughing, etc. Good luck!
