Hi -
Regarding quantity of cases in FL - an older population may increase numbers, since there is a correlation with age and disease and severity since Bronchieactasis is chronic and progressive.

I am also on exhaled Arikayce for the MAC - between that and the 3 oral antibiotics, I have a lot of nauseous days!

That’s a good point about increasing cases and the older population of Florida. That being the case, funding, research and study trials should be a priority for the state. They could certainly find a large number of volunteers while looking for effective treatments and a cure. Hopefully that will come soon.
It sounds like you are on medication overload. It’s got to be difficult for the body to adjust yo
the bombardment of drugs on top of effects of MAC.
How long have you been on the 4 drugs? Do you feel like any of your MAC symptoms changing/getting better?
Thank you for your comments. I appreciate all the information I am getting here. Good luck and I hope the nausea gets better very soon!
