Finding the right doctor can drastically improve how supported and educated you feel, and how well your NTM infection is managed. If you or a loved one has NTM lung disease, you may already know how crucial finding the right doctor is. Or perhaps you are uncertain which kinds of medical professionals can best help you. As you assemble your “treatment team” it’s important to maintain open communication with your doctors. Make sure you tell them about all symptoms as well as any new symptoms and side effects of treatments.
This website has a list of questions to ask your doctor, and you can find a discussion guide to help start a conversation with your doctor at AboutNTM.com.
