Mycobacterium Avium complex. It is a cousin to TB.

rlynnh, MAC is Mycobacterium Avium Complex. Those of us with BE (bronchiectasis) are at higher risk to get these pathogens. I suggest you do some research to learn more and be proactive. This will lower your risk of getting a chest infection.
Have a great day!
