I am off all antibiotics at the moment (except nebulizing twice a day and using my albuterol). I took meds for 13 months for MAC avium and it cleared and so did my cavity. Then several months later I had a bronchoscopy and had Aspergillus and Abscessus so they treated the Aspergillus for 6 months. The new cavity I have is closing gradually but I am not on meds right now because my colony count for the Abscessus is very low and I have no symptoms. With this disease anything can change in a minute so I just stay positive and continue to do my ACT's daily for the rest of my life.
