@sueinmn I’m not sure if my pulmonologist has experience with refractive MAC. I had my first infection in 2012. Was treated with the Big 3 for 16 months. Apparently came back about 6 years ago but not confirmed or treated, cavitation and MAC confirmed in 2024. The cavitation is 3 cm and has not increased in size. My infectious disease doctor and pulmonologist both specialize in bronchiectasis and MAC treatment, thanks for your questions.

@deestrada Several people mention the Big Three. Ive been on more than 3 drugs for cavitary Mac so im curious what you are referring to?

@deestrada based on your posts, if in your situation, I would continue treatment for another 6 months or a year and revisit it with my care team then.
