Meanwhile - so CMM had his bronchoscopy yesterday. He's had a small nagging cough since we first started dating that was thought to be the residual of a case of flu he had late spring. He saw his doctor who prescribed antibiotics and took an xray which looked like pneumonia. When it didn't resolve with a couple of courses of antibiotics he got a CT scan which showed a 12 x 14 cm mass of uncertain type. Bronchoscopy yesterday did not show any endobronchial lesions (meaning no masses or tumors inside the large airways) and he did have a lot of impacted mucous which they cleaned out. Multiple needle biopsies and cultures were taken but we won't have the results until next week. Lung cancer of course is the big concern but so far nobody really seems to have a clear idea what this is. A sputum culture is growing some pseudomonas aeroginosa, a type of bacteria, but that might just be an overgrowth caused by his previous two rounds of antibiotics. Blood tests for ANCA-related vasculitis syndromes are all negative.
His father was a nonsmoker who died of lung cancer. CMM is also a nonsmoker but did have about four years of second hand smoke exposure in the military when he was young. I'm trying not to borrow trouble and just wait for the biopsy results.
