She didnt mention a biopsy just a bronchoscope due to scarring on my lungs and im so anxious about it now she says she is going to wait until the next ct scan to see if its necessary still but all of this freaks me out

They can use a bronchoscope to get tissue for a biopsy, but you can also do a bronchoscopy just to take a look. Does she want to do a biopsy too, or do you want her to do a biopsy? If you're concerned about why she wants to do the bronchoscopy, talk to her and find out. Then you can decide whether you want it done or not.

Is she doing the CTs with contrast?
