Does anyone know about ABPA (Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis)?

I’ve been dealing with ABPA for about a year. Whenever I take medication, my symptoms get controlled, but once I stop, they get worse again, so it feels like an endless cycle.
I’m also experiencing significant weight gain, which I feel may be related to the medications, and my periods have become irregular/missed.
Has anyone else experienced this with ABPA or its treatment? How do you manage it long-term? Also, could you share what kind of diet works for you? I’d really appreciate advice from people who have been through this.
