I have had MAC since around 2010. I was on the famous 3 super antibiotics for a year. The MAC went dormant for about 10 years then returned with a vengeance after I had covid in 2024. In 2025 I was on a picc line with Cefepime, an oral, Clarithromycin, and Nebulized with Arikayce for four months. It killed my gut. I have lost 20 lbs. I still have no appetite & can barely eat. I have such shortness of breath, and very weak. It also has promoted osteoporosis and I have 5 fractures in my lower back. I saw your post one week ago started nebulizing with 7% saline twice a day. How long does it take to feel better? Does it really help to reduce the MAC? Is there anything else that might help?? My Dr now recommends Brinsupri. Gayle
