(MAC/MAI) Mycobacterium Avium Complex Pulmonary Disease: Join us

@flib I am sorry to hear of your troubles and that your lungs are filling.. Have you tried the clear lung herbal remedy? I wonder if that would help. ?? I do think that you will like the Garden of Eden Vanilla with a banana...that used to be my breakfast for over a year. Very nourishing. Kate

My heart goes out to you.
Wish I had some answers

Flib and America...hahaha yes cast a spell! I am 5"11' and weigh 124, can't stop losing. Tomorrow I will try smoothies, anything. People always try to get me to eat but it goes right through. My cheeckbones are way too prominant.
azithromyacin for 2 years wiped out bowels, and tinnitus is so extreme, evil stuff. not alone! xo

@flib and @america, I had the same issue. Nothing tasted good and had zero appetite. I thought I'd never like food again. Once the infection was knocked out, all of that changed. Food tastes good again, and have my appetite back. (Putting on some fat too). I hope that you two can get back to enjoying food again too before long. Hugs!

@a@unicorn. Well, you're at least as thin as I am. I'm 5"7, Just bought some new clothes because I'm disappearing in what I have. Kind of fun, and might as well if you have to be runway thin. Next thing you know I'll be into piercings. Azithromyacin did me in. I felt better on it but losing some hearing was not worth it. Fortunately, my lung doctor knew what she was doing and got me off it before I lost it all.
So tomorrow is Thursday smoothies.

piercings hahaha...we'll look like meth heads, good grief. For sure kind of fun. All my friends hate me. Jeans look great, really I could wear anything now, but so thin it scares me. Got on scale last night and was 124, so ate cottage cheese and toast, just anything I could find. I didn't eat dinner for most of my life, never thought healthy, but now large dinners are required!! It can get expensive and a lot of time I just don't have the energy to do it. when I do go out, i shock people at how much I eat. I dont go to bathroom afterwards because they think i go throw up!! My gorgeous friend died a few months ago, I thought she was anorexic but she said she had IBS. I didnt believe her and didnt see her for last 2 years because we looked freaky together, both rail thin and 5"11. Feel badly now because I understand more, but too late. So now I eat a lot and work out as much as I can for strong muscles. Just got over the flu, so, dangerous for us, ran 101. fought it off and almost 71 now so still hanging in there, No coughing up blood in few years, enjoying what I've got and looking great in those jeans! Keep eating, working out, have more fun..... xo

@onana Unicorn, I love your attitude. It encourages me to find what's good in my life and enjoy it.
