In my case because I have kidney disease, the kidney doctor and the infectious disease doctor were a team and often told the pulmonary doctor "no". re. Tobi for example. It was an interesting war experience! (this was for pseudomonas not MAC)

Interesting. When my husband had pseudomonas we had to monitor the drugs the pulmo wanted to use. His kidney doc was in a different clinical system. As his CKD progresses we will try to find someone in the same network, but when you're seeking the best available sometimes that isn't an option.
