Hi i was full anxiety when i was told the horrible side effects of the treatment for mac but reading this blog it gave me hope that i could manage. They have good info and reading the experiences of others helps a lot. I will be starting in February the 3 meds and hopefully will do well.
Will update as i go. Having the bronchiectasis makes it harder to eliminate and it may come back. I can’t think that far i am just dealing with now and hoping the infection can be killed. Depending on your situation they may not treat right now. Your infectious disease doctor will let you know. I asked lots of questions and researched this infection to death. It helped to have a little knowledge before seeing the doctor. Wishing you the best. Miriam

Thanks I have been researching and living on the computer since I was diagnosed. Not much coughing but I know I have the nodular and no cavities or tissue damage yet. So hopeful for the best outcome . I will be following you to see how you manage your treatment. I hope the very best for you. I didn’t even know this disease or infection was possible. Caught me totally off guard.Never was really sick a day in my life prior to this.I will pray for you during this journey.
