Not treating mycobacterium Abscessus ?

Four years ago I finished 18 month antibiotic treatment for MAC. I tolerated it but it was rough. One year ago MAC had returned. At the recommendation of my new pulmonologist at Mayo-Rochester, I chose no antibiotic treatment, but daily respiratory therapy and exercise. I will have a CT scan and MRI follow up appointment in July. At age 79 with Bronchiectasis and MAC, I feel well.
