It is extremely helpful to hear some of the sugg shared and great ideas re being an active participant in our tx. I Have one pos MAC sputum, CATs are text book MAC, my symptoms too are indicative of MAC. See ID next Mon. If I do go on treatment , I will take all your recommendations into acct. Weekly blood work at the start and one drug at a time. Rite now on High dose Zythro 500 mg. And no reaction, so it’s the Rafampin I will worry about.

Yes, be very careful with the rifampin. Don't know why some ID Doctors continue to use this in the course of treatment. Seems a lot a people have problems with it, as did I. Make sure they do blood test on you along the way. Mine never ordered any. I refuse to see him anymore. He was more concerned with my vision and the Ethambutal. Wasn't a problem with me at all. Still have 20/30 vision at the age of 70.
