By the time I was diagnosed (after years of symptoms), I had a cavity with scar tissue that even made a resection not possible. 6 years later, it is about the same size.

Resection for me was scheduled originally on my left lung. A week before surgery, my right lung collapsed from the MAC spreading. I did go on Arikayce and the cavity shrunk to 5cm but not until 3 years later
