Ending antibiotics for MAC

I was on the Big 3 for 13 months (with MAC) testing negative the whole time. After being off meds for only 5 months (which was glorious) I got Aspergillus and Abscessus (which was found during a Bronchoscopy). I was beyond disappointed but they wanted to treat the Aspergillus first and I am into 3 months of a 6 month treatment with Voriconazole. I go back to NJH Nov. 3rd so not sure what they plan to do at this point. I try to stay positive but it does get hard at times.

jusg to clarify, you said you were on big 3 for 13 months testing negative. I’m guessing you mean the 13 months was after you initial course of the big 3? How long was that?
I’m so sorry about the Aspergillus and Abscessus.
