Hi @adam1131, I know this is very scary, but now you have a diagnosis and you can get proper treatment. I have moved this discussion to the MAC & Bronchiectasis group. Click this link https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/mac-bronchiectasis/

In the MAC & Bronchiectasis group you will find many informative discussions and get support from many members who live well with MAC and & bronchiectasis. Your on the right path and will see that several members have been helped by taking antibiotics, like @windwalker @sueinmn @testlady @auntnanny and others.

Hello, MAC is a scary diagnosis at first, but as you will learn here, we all learn how to live with it in time. Feel free to ask all the questions you have. We are not doctors, but we can certainly share our experiences with you.

I'm curious, who made your diagnosis? With bronchiectasis and MAC it is very important to see a pulmonologist and/or infectious disease (ID) doc who are familiar with the complex and long-term treatment needed. Not every doctor is familiar with MAC and the treatment protocols.
