Hi! Wish I'd found this forum when I started my MAC journey a year ago! I've just come off the meds- my Dr kept me at a year because I "developed" such a weird depression while on them- complete apathy. I'm so paranoid about it coming back as I can't do this again (I think my husband would leave too!) I've been off meds now for 3weeks but in the last couple days, feel like a tightness in my chest. How quickly would this bounce back if we didn't really get rid of it? Also is the sputum test a good test- my Dr diagnosed by bronoscopy and never mentioned the sputum test.
