Barbara, yes, I only started the antibiotics this year. The nodule that grew was one I had for several years and had been slowly growing. My husband died suddenly of a heart attack. My MAC has been confirmed for years but once the one nodule grew to a concerning size, I was referred to the ID MD. I took the Princess cruise from Boston. I typically go on Princess or Holland America. When I have coughing fits, I simply acknowledge I have a lung disease, but I am not contagious. If they ask what it is, I just tell them MAC and if they are interested to look it up. I don't bother trying to explain. There are lots of tour options out there. Even single tours! I am looking at Peru and the Galapagos, National Parks Tours, and hopefully London/Paris. My treatment ends 4-08-2025 hopefully I am MAC free then!!
