Hello Girls, I am new to your forum. I am a 56 year old diagnosed with Bronchiectatasis and MAC avium 2 years ago. I also have NTM abscessus colonization in my sinuses (along with a host of other bad dudes!) I see doctors at Stanford and they have things contained pretty well right now by Gentamicin inhalant 2x daily and budesonide inhalant 2x daily, along with compression vest, postural drainage, and nebulizer w/2% saline. I am still able to work full time, enjoy grandbabies, and most weeks, exercise 5 days a week. But I do suffer with exhaustion, nearly constant headaches, and when I get tired, terrible stabbing muscle pains & chills. Seem to need 10-12 hours of sleep a night. Prayers of friends and family keep me going, but I am concerned about what the future holds. I do wonder sometimes if I should stop working to reduce stress and focus all my efforts toward staying well (?) Also wonder if I should explore National Jewish or Mayo? My lung doctor has explained the "Big 3" antibiotic treatment plan and when we would consider starting. I am also wondering which of my symptoms CBD oil might help? Thanks for listening and any response is appreciated. So grateful for this forum where we can lift one another up and encourage others!
