It has been some time since I have written on this forum but read most responses every day. Tomorrow I go back to the Mayo for a follow up visit. Dr Aksamit has decided not to treat my MAC in the past but to just watch it. I will be doing tests tomorrow and then seeing someone in pulmonary who works under Dr Aksamit. I am a little nervous about this visit. Wish I was feeling better but that is not the case. But I have gained weight which was a concern after losing 10 pounds before. Another thing is I usually go alone so it can be overwhelming. At least I live close by, 1 1/2 hours away. I will let you know how it goes, just wanted to reach out to all of you wonderful people that can relate to the struggle. Barb

In what way are you not feeling well?

Good luck on your visit! I am going to try the Scoott and White hospital in Temple Texas. Appointment May 2.

@barbjh Barb, wondering how your Mayo appointment went? (I've been off the Forum for a family matter.) Could you take a minute and just update us? How was it going by yourself? Will it be less scary next time now that you know the routine? The fact that you gained some weight is good news! Keep us posted! Hugs! Katherine

@patw, Pat be sure to let us know how your visit goes .. AND how your experience is at that hospital .. that would be good information for our Forum pages! Good Luck! Hugs! Katherine
