My mistake, the cavity was 3cm, not 3mm. Was on 3 antibiotics for 2.5 years.

That make's more sense, my main cavity is like 2.4x3.1 cm.
I got too much scar tissue to close probably.

@brian93 Congratulation! Can you please share what great work you did to help with the collapse? Much appreciated. I have a MAC cavity and have been on antibiotics for 14 months. The size does shrink about 10% though not significantly, but the wall of the cavity becomes really thinner. I wonder whether it is a sign of collapse too. So far I tolerate the medicine really well and have no other symptoms. Your input will be much appreciated!
