Does anyone else have a dual diagnosis of MAC (mycobacterial avium complex) and lung cancer? Cannot find others and am experiencing a troubling difference among Dr.'s treatment plans? Advice please.

    Hi there-- sorry, no experience with your dual diagnosis, but want to give you the same advice I'd give anyone here. There's no excuse/reason for a patient to be troubled by doctor's differing opinions. . . not when it comes to your health! Have you sought a 2nd opinion? That's what I'd do, if I encountered different doctors presenting different treatment plans. Good luck to you-- I hope you find some answers that help you rest easy.
