If I remember right wasn't this a significant problem before the addition of the antibiotics for the MAC? Just thinking out loud...in case this is related to the antibiotics.
The reason why I am hesitant to undergo the endoscopy is because my pulmonary will do another cat scan and bronchodcopy after 6 months of treatment (march 2013). But if the GI Dr recommends thee endoscopy I think I should go for it.
Yes en bloc. This stomach problem was present prior to MAC treatment but the antibiotics, I think make it worse.
You remember about the stomach distress PRE MAC. That was sweet of you to remember! Thank you.
