Yes, I have MAC and bronchiectasis. I decided to hold off on the antibiotics for now. I started airway clearance with a nebulizer last week, I’m hoping that at my 6 months checkup the CT will show it hasn’t gotten worse.

I asked my doctor why/how I got this disease.. there is no known cause. Some people are just susceptible to it and inhaling things from the environment could have caused it. She told me she usually sees it in older people, but lately more young people are being diagnosed.
