Increase coughing and increase flem

Posted by mary1944 @mary1944, Feb 12, 2018

I've just been diagnosed with MAC after years of coughing and no diagnosis. Will be seeing an infectious disease doctor in a couple of weeks. I'm on four kinds of meds and coughing more and spitting up more flem. Also feel I have less energy. Has anyone else dealt with this?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the MAC & Bronchiectasis Support Group.

Yes, most of us have. What meds are you on?

Are you seeing an Infectious Disease MD. I am on Azithromycin, Rifampin and Ethamubtol. Did they tell you what type of MAC you have?
