Hi Jennifer. I just looked up Long QT. It is a heart arrhythmia that can be genetic, or caused by medications, or both. The meds used to treat MAC and other fungal infections can cause the arrhythmia as a side effect. Other common causes of long QT can be being dehydrated and short of magnesium and/or potassium.
