May I tell your family you are so not lazy!! I was the ever ready bunny till I got MAC and BE. They can look MAC up online. It even talks about the exhaustion and how family members need to understand it is difficult to do so many things like housework and meal prep. I was the holiday house for everything. I still provide the house, but everyone brings a dish now and cleans up for me.

I don't always look at posting date either , sorry about that. I am so with you all with NTM and Bronchietasis.. The exhaustion is something people don't understand, especially the doctors. I am not on any MAC meds right now as I have been that route with very little improvement and bad side effects in 2020. Housework, meal prep , errands I cannot hardly do any more. Working full time yet takes absolutely all my energy until I turn 64 when I can then resign my position and be comfortable enough to pay for my own health insurance , but I rely on my husband for all of the day to day housekeeping tasks right now. So sad so many of us are in this position, but I have hope. Mayo Clinic Connect is a life line for many of us to share our experiences and gain tidbits of valuable knowledge.
