@lindawellness When I started this thread I was thinking of Candida, thrush since I had had that in the mid 80's.
I have a sputum in and waiting on final results. The early results of the sputum test showed Yeast (Not Cryptococcus) Fusarium species. Until the last two, to my knowledge, my sputum had not been tested for Fungus. The last two involved OU Medical Center lab and then NJH.
I do not believe, until the last two, that my sputum was being tested for fungus. It is a new system that I have recently had visits with, a new pulmonologist I decided to see.
I have sent a message to the Tyler lab, where I had been sending my sputum for testing before these last two.....I want to confirm fungus testing or not when sending in sputum for testing at the Tyler lab.
BE stands for Bronchiectasis, of which I was diagnosed for in Oct. of 2023.
At this point in time I feel fine, but!
