@gpgatzke Waiting is so very hard! And the wait for MAC cultures is particularly difficult as it can take up to eight weeks, not overnight like most lab tests.
What led your doctor to suspect MAC? Do you have other lung conditions?

I have had a cough for four years, I didn't realize I was coughing as much as I was, it was second nature to me. I had a CScan and it showed nodules, pockets and previous pneumonia along with scaring. While waiting for the culture results I am using a nebulizer that helps bring up the mucus.
Since using the nebulizer and having many people praying for me my cough is in check.
