Linda-
It appears I did not send properly my original reply, I don't see it here on this thread.
To keep it short and for confirmation did it take two years to rid yourself of the MAC?
Have you had a positive culture(s)at any time after that period when your cultures showed you eliminated the MAC?
You apparently did build a "brick house."

@blm1007blm1007 I read a while back in a study that spontaneous clearance of MAC takes on average 2 1/2 years, so Linda’s 2 year time frame seems on point. Off the top of my head I believe the study said that in a group that had stable CT’s for three years, 38% achieved spontaneous clearance, again with average timeframe of 2.5 years. The trick of course is having a stable CT. And even then the majority don’t spontaneously clear. Still, the percentage of those with a stable CT that do clear is not insignificant.
