Did your Dr not explain that once colonized, the pseudomonas is always going to be there? The IV treatment can knock it back but not get rid of it. I should think that the Remicade would be very risky for someone with Pseudomonas colonized. Hopefully you can explore other options.

@irenea8 thank you for your comments . No the infectious Disease Dr did not specifically say that it would always be there . And you’re correct in that the Rheumatologist will NOT start the Remicade if there is any evidence of the Pseudomonas. He wants a written letter from the Ent Dr that it’s eradicated . The ENT Dr will do another sinus culture at the end of the current IV treatment for determination .
