@robyn13 Yes, eyesight was a huge concern for me when I was prescribed the antibiotics, especially since I already have mild glaucoma. So I talked to my long time ophthalmologist, who encouraged me to "lick the infection." We proceeded with a vision testing plan where I checked myself every day for changes, however small. For the first year I saw her every 3 months, and with no issues appearing, it was extended to every 6 months in the second year. I finished treatment with no vision issues, and only a mild increase to my tinnitus.
That was over 6 years ago, and I'm still going strong. I was quite ill with MAC, and doubt I would be here if I wasn't treated.
Knowing what I do after 8 years on Connect, I would ask more questions before antibiotics, but would still have taken them because of the severity.
How severe is your infection? Have you tried "watch and wait" while using 7% saline and airway clearance?
