I grew MAC a few years back, too. It's not as bad as M. abscessus, which is in the same family of bugs and is very hard to treat. The treatment for MAC is usually a long course of abx, typically about a year or so. However, MAC is more sensitive to oral abx, and I was able to go on...

Hey there! My doc isn't always the most aggressive, but when it comes to being sick and needing IVs, he has me on them until I feel better (or until the side effects become too much to tolerate). I've been on IV meds for about 10 months now, to treat M. abscessus. The treatment course for this...
