Pseudomonas infections

Hi…I have Psuedomonas now in my sinuses . I had 4 infections last year , UTI, Lung, Eye and Sinus and now 2 again this year . I was referred to Infectious disease center and put on IV Zosyn last year and now. I have a ruptured Achilles tendon and I’ve had no problems other than the ankle swelling but that normal when I’m on my feet too much .i also have Scoliosis lower back and chronic bursitis both shoulders and hips ( I’m 85 yrs old) but again don’t feel and side affects in those areas from the IV treatment. The
Psuedomonas has now colonized so it will be interesting as to whether this IV treatment eradicates it or makes it go dormant . It’s not easy going through all this is it. All the best , Kay B.

@kaybast FYI update from above post .
I have been on IV Zosyn for 3 wks for sinus infection Pseudomonas . My ENT Dr took a sinus culture 4 days ago and it came back “no growth” so today the IV was pulled as originally scheduled !
My side affects to the last 3 wks was stomach issues with vomit and diarrhea and extreme fatigue
