@jolenesj Sounds like you have a Primary Care Physician who is not closed minded due to the suggestion of supplements.
I take those you mentioned because I was/am familiar with them and the reasons for taking them. I also take garlic tablets which possibly help also with infections. I was put on watchful waiting in 2023 and ......at this time after doing the nebulizing, air way clearance methods, huff coughing. light exercise, healthy eating and supplements it appears the MAI infection has decreased in that the last sputum results indicated " no showings of MAI detected and no respiratory pathogens".
This is hard to believe because I have not taken the antibiotics.
I am now 83 and feel well. I do however get a bit tired and have a feeling of being tense on some days after doing the full routine for controlling the BE, Bronchiectasis and infection.
As the lead doctor that I had at National Jewish Hospital/Clinic said: " You have the disease that requires the most work." Yes, it is work!!!
