There are so many variables so answers are nearly impossible. Length of the infections, treatment type and length, antibiotic sensitivity. family history and alpha-1, copd presence, cavitary disease, patient exercise, lung perfusion/ventilation. Pulmonary fungal infections after Mac are becoming increasingly common.

@rstel7272 I have noticed in reading on this forum and others that many say after taking the Big 3 for MAC that they then developed Aspergillosis. I wonder if somehow taking the Big 3 causes you to be more susceptible to this or it is just circumstances?
