Welcome to Mayo Connect. We are a patient and caregiver support group, so maybe you can start by telling us a little about your diagnosis. Then others who also have alpha 1 and MAC will see it and respond.

I am an MZ carrier with asthma, ABPA and MAC. Both of my sisters have COPD, and my brother has emphysema. They all smoked when younger (I didn't) but clearly the carrier status has had an impact on our lung health.
