Fatigue with NTM

@jessed I have fatigue a lot, and usually an elevated temp along with it when I have it. Not a clinical fever, but a fever of sorts for me, as in 99.6. It can be depressing, but it seems to come and go without a lot of rhyme or reason. I hope you are feeling less fatigued now.

@loyse, yes, mine also comes and goes. It’s lower now and not as deep but today I took a nap. I experienced the same low-temp when I had flate a month ago. I’m more accepting though and vigilent about air way clearance etc. Best, jessed

@loyse BTW, I also often present clinically, with a "normal" temp at 99. My normal temp is about 97.3. Anytime I run 99, I KNOW an infection is trying to kick up, in my case anyway. This has been going on for 20 years. Sometimes, I "kick" whatever is starting to fester, but sometimes, it just progresses into a full-blown infection. I had it explained to me once, that because of the MAC my body is always fighting, the opportunistic bacteria (that we all harbor) will and do come out to wreak havoc from time to time.
