Hi. You may want to look at the site for non-tubercular mycobacterium, which includes information on quite a few different mycobacterium, including MAI. There is lots of support information there as well as a discussion list. The adress is: http://ntminfo.org.
<br />
<br />Please keep in mind that the majority of posters on the discussion board are older women who also have other genetic factors that may pre-dispose them to MAC. So staying positive is very helpful. I believe there are some younger men on the board who live quite well - without surgery - staying very active - including rock climbing. I believe this site was created by someone who went to the National Jewish Hospital in Colorado for treatment. This is the top centre for treating NTMs.
