Brief Summary: To assess the feasibility of using culture and staining techniques to quantify tissue Mycobacterium avium Complex MAC burden in bone marrow To correlate and compare changes in MAC bone marrow burden with quantitative MAC blood culture results at baseline and after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment

MAC is easiest to detect in the blood although doctors generally believe that MAC in blood is just spill-over from infection of other parts of the body Traditionally studies of potential treatments for MAC focus only on MAC changes in the blood This study compares MAC changes in blood to those in bone marrow which is another tissue where MAC is often found

Patients receive both clarithromycin and ethambutol for 48 weeks those who become intolerant to the study drugs may receive suggested substitute drugs azithromycin and rifabutin Patients receive a bone marrow biopsy at baseline and at either 4 or 8 weeks Patients are evaluated at weeks 1 2 4 6 8 12 24 36 and 48
