@tinaesims I started out the same. Positive cultures and really no other symptoms. They watched it for 2 years then when there were changes happening on my CT, they started the meds. I wished that they would have started them sooner before the changes showed on my CT. Now I am having a harder time getting rid of this. I was reading about NAC and L Glutathione. I am not sure if that will interact with the Big 3. I am now taking them daily. I do take Probiotics at least 3-4 hours after my dose. I do take Vitamin D. My ID MD told me if you want to help your immune system that is about the only Vitamin he would suggest.

I take suppliments also I think in a perfect world we would get our vitamins in our food but the ground is depleted from nutrients. Also many people just don't eat healthy nutrient dense foods like we should.
Everyone should get their vitamin D level checked by their primary Dr.
Mine was extremely low now I suppliment 5000 units a day and its up to where it should be. I live in Minnesota so our sun exposure is limited too. Vitamin D is extremely important to your immune system.
I take C, zinc, magnesium aswagandha and NAC.
What type of glutithion do you use? I have heard of nebulizing glutithion also going to check with my Pulmonologist regarding that when I see him next.
Unfortunately in our healthcare Doctors get very little teaching on diet and suppliments.
