I am being told I need a bronchoscopy.I have been coughing for at least six months, and I really feel I work in a sick building. I was very well before I started this job.

Hello,

Unfortunately, your report shows that you have lung fibrosis which means a scar tissue in the lungs which will be non functional. Bronchoscopy and biopsy would be needed to know the reason for fibrosis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Haleema Yezdani, General & Family Physician
