I did hear from joe Frankinham
He thought it was more likely I had metholbacterium. Infection. If I spelled that right.
That sometimes the labs get them mixed up because they look the same in the culture both of these bacteria’s have a pinkish red when they grow so I called the lab and they said they did the DNA test on the bacteria and it was definitely Serratia Marcescens. He recommended I see an infectious disease doctors he gave the name of two that are located in Tyler Texas
Coincidently I saw a doctor yesterday and she also recommended an infectious disease doctor. And also my ENT called this morning and they recommended an infectious disease doctor. So I have an appointment Monday see what I can find out because I’m tired of being sick and in pain.
Thank you for your help
Goldie

@12061948 Hi Goldie. Gosh, I hope you can get to feeling better soon. Had you been in a hospital or nursing home setting where you would have likely picked this up at? Good luck on Monday. Please keep me posted.
