Was diagnosed with mycobacterium absessus 2 years ago, I took Amikacin (infusions) for 2 months until tinnitus developed; then went to inhaled Amikacin as well as azithromycin and chlofazimine for a year, sputum cultures came back negative for an entire year. I came off the regimen only to have it back again in sputum after a few months; obviously, am quite discouraged. Anybody have experience with this type of Mac, what medications have you taken; what has been your success? I sure don’t want to start this regimen up again, but not sure I have a choice. Thanks for any of your input.
