@blm1007blm1007 I wonder the same. I still haven't seen my count yet from January culture. Hopefully I will get it at 4 weeks and it remains low. Disheartening to have 4 negatives and now 2 positives. I sense it is just that-not showing up and now reared its ugly head. I have a chronic cough since November/December that isn't going away. I don't want to go on the antibiotics. I was on them for 3 weeks, but NJH told me I could go off of them due to a low count. Sick every day, tinnitus, and elevated liver enzymes suggest I might not make it 18 months-or more.

@kathyjjb I just looked up elevated liver enzymes and Cleveland Clinic posted they could be temporary. Let's just hope it is temporary.
Did that show up with a Liver Function Test? Did they decide to do these also: ultrasound, CT scan or MRI?
So disheartening with the chronic cough and sick every day.
Try to allow yourself to keep positive thoughts on your mind and just do as best you can with all that needs to be done, nebulizing etc.
I sent my last sputum vile in Tuesday, so the wait begins again.
