Hello, I've been away for a while—partly for life, money, and trying to get back to work. I do have a question on ways to be exposed to get MAC. I ask because I spent 1 and 1/2 years in a classroom infested with circuits. It was so bad that when they finally came in to clean, all the boxes of books where the circuits were nesting had to be thrown out because of the contamination. I had circuit dung all over the room on window seals and the top of all surfaces. Those are what I could see. Then, I had ants that dug holes in my classroom floor. And to top it off, the acoustic ceiling tiles were the only barrier to the outside. Above them was an open space with full sunlight from under the eaves. I have pictures if that would be clearer.

I am asking because I believe this is where I became infected. It was the right amount of time, and the environment fits how most of us get exposed. I don't do any gardening and live in the desert. If I can get a doctor to agree, I can get some financial support. I want to return to work full-time, but I can't right now.
