Thanks for the input Scoop! I am glad I have the LifeStraw and hope it is a good plan. The hospital stay was really not bad at all. Maybe because it is a special unit just for Pulmonary infections and BE etc. and also because I was just so sick it was a big relief. They have a great Pulmonary Rehab that work on you and they bring you your nebbing. Great and very accommodating staff that let you sleep at night or neb when you want etc. Food was decent and I was starving after treatment began with OX and Mero. I almost did not want to leave. The IV injection was just twice a day and had almost 0 side effects. I started to get twinges of colitis at the end of it so I stopped at 11 days instead of 12. The oxygen made me feel SO MUCH better. My stats were (wait for it) in the 60's when I was admitted. Now in the 90's on OX. My infection was pretty severe. My kidneys were shutting down and I never realized it was from low Ox that had been going on. It will be interesting to see if I can get off of the OX or not. This was my first actual treatment for Pseudo so the response was good. Hope it lasts for some time.
