Has anyone taken the Big 3 Daily?

Hmmm...in your situation, I might campaign for a 6 month trial of 3x/week, unless I had cavitary MAC (actual open cavities or pockets of infection in the lung - shows on CT.) Also, have they talked about stopping the doxycycline while on the regimen?

My exercise regimen is morning stretching (and sometimes chair yoga), walking 4-5 times a week and playing vigorously with 2 young grandsons or my 2 yo neighbor 2-3 times a week. I also build in 2 "rest days" when all I do is stretch and maybe a short casual walk.

I also "kamikaze" clean my house - pickup, dust, mop, vacuum at full speed, with a goal of getting done in 20-30 minutes. And I maintain a large garden - mostly perennials & shrubs - that keeps me moving about 3-4 hours a week (someone else does the digging & mulching for me now.)
What is the trainer working on with you?

I sent an email to doctor asking what the plan would be if I have a flareup.
Hope to hear back tomorrow..
And will ask the question about cavitary MAC.
I almost feel I should seek a second opinion from another ID doctor.
I work an hour twice a week with trainer.
20 minute warm up. Then
3 sets of different weight exercises…14 reps. Then another round of two or three sets.
She also uses the big ball and the universal.
You can find the exercises online but I find I’m not that disciplined to do myself so I need to be accountable.
You must have a lot of energy to do what you are doing. That is great!!
Thanks again!!
