How do you explain your disease to the uninitiated?

Because I’m new to the diagnoses, I have burdened many with a LONG explanation about BE and MAC - thank you for some nice succinct responses! I did reduce my answer to atypical tuberculosis a few times, but that scared folks. 😕

LOL I thought of that, too, but decided to just say, " It is a rare lung condition that is not contagious, but makes me susceptible to infection"
I was just diagnosed as well. I have just begun treatment a week ago.
Someone else said it well....others' eyes glaze over and they just can't take too long of an explanation!
