My MAI was detected accidentally on a CT scan for lung cancer. However, I was complaining about bronchitis for several years. A sputum sample verified the identification. I have been on 3 antibiotic since Jan 2022 and will continue for 18 months.
I raised Gouldian finches and owned an African Grey Timneh parrot. Go figure!
I am responding well to treatment.

It's wonderful to hear that you are responding to the antibiotics.
I must ask, since birds can be a source of MAC, what did the docs have to say about continuing to have birds?
