Okay, that's a new one to me so Ilookedit up. It doesusuallyrespondtorifabutin (a relative of rifampin), but sometimes not to azithromycin so yet another drug may be added.

Do you know if they tested to see exactly which drugs it is sensitive to?

I'm glad you got a sharp ID doc! Color yourself fortunate.
