Macrobend, need some fiber pros help


Hey I'm doing temp circuit extension for a sporting event at a stadium, having to backfeed thru existing fiber. we have 1-2 passing but our spares (3-4) are failing. testing with ILOM and getting a macrobend between 2 patch panels (so looks like on the jumper). I have a 2m jumper that we replaced, wondering if this was more a MFD issue from jumper (so there are 2 splices, 2 bulkheads, and a short jumper in about 10ft), would a 20m jumper possibly help? or just turn macrobend detection off? it's about a 1500ft run thru 5 bulkheads and my loss around 2-2.5db
