Alternative Treatments for MAC: immunotherapy, etc.

Posted by jspremich @jspremich, Apr 5, 2018

I was diagnosed with MAC a little over 2 years ago. Have not yet starting taking antibodies. Although I suspect this will happen in the very near future. Has anyone explored alternative treatment, i.e. immune therapy?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the MAC & Bronchiectasis Support Group.

@maureengdds , did your mom try Red Light Therapy? Some people in this group have added it to their toolbox and they seem to be happy with the results.
Some doctors used it successfully on Covid lungs also. There are some YouTube videos on it (e.g. dr. Anderson, etc).
It seems to be quite helpful at reducing inflammation in the lungs. If there is less inflammation, there is less infection (I do believe this, but I could be wrong).
Best wishes of great health to all of us!

Does anyone have a recommendation for the red light lamp and bulb that they’ve purchased to get the best for our lung issues from the exposure to the infrared?
Thanks for any suggestions?
I have looked and frankly was quite confused based on the wide selection.

I watched this video assuming this was the Dr Anderson.

@irenea8 Yes, this is one of the videos I watched, there is another one about lungs (maybe covid lungs? I don't recall precisely) that I found interesting. He gives a lot of information.

@blm1007blm1007, Hi Barbara, I do believe you are referring to a different doctor Anderson.
The doctor I was referring to is dr. Paul Anderson, he is an educator and a clinician in alternative medicines for chronic illnesses and cancer. He is in Seattle (Washington). He gives many detailed talks on YouTube, some for laypeople and some for practicians.
Best wishes of great health to all of us!
