I'm due to have one in a fortnight at Birmingham. They will do a biopsy at the same time.
Has anyone had the same procedure?
Hello DeBond,
I'm not exactly sure if I had this (or even if it was available) when I was diagnosed in 2014. I do however recall having a diagnostic bronchoscopy procedure under general anaesthetic so who knows?
I guess you've been provided with information on the procedure in advance, but if not (and you want to read it) a link to it is below.
I'm sure someone who's had the procedure will be along soon with their experience of it.
I hope it goes well for you and leads to successful completion of investigaton and treatment.
Derek.
