I can only speak from personal experience. My fungal cultures are resulted in about a week and have shown apergillus pretty consistently while I had MAC. I asked my ID doctors (one local, one at NJH) if they would treat it and both said no. I finished my MAC antibiotic treatment last June and at this time negative for both MAC and aspergillus. Fingers crossed!

That's great, 7 months negative for both. Another encouraging story!
Not sure if you mentioned this in another thread, however, if you have time.
1. Was this your first time on the antibiotics?
2. How long were you on them?
3. Were you on the typical three or two etc. etc.
