@reneemc oh no, I am so sorry! Do you worry that she infected you or vice versa? Did you have lung fungus when you were diagnosed with MAC, or was it all just a heartbreaking coincidence? They say with NTM that humans that live together and both get infected it’s more likely that they share a common environmental exposure than that one infected the other. I myself live in a semi-rural area so there is a lot of potential for exposure to all the bugs that are problematic for our patient population. But honestly, if I present a risk to my cats’ health, I would rethink my position of course. I will review with my vet ASAP. I did tell my vet about my NTM infection when I was first diagnosed, as my cat often sleeps very close to my face (though so does my husband!) He had no idea what to do with that information, lol. Since the doctors repeatedly say we BE/NTM patients are not infectious, I have not been worried, but you are giving me pause.
