My sputum test showed” a few pseudomonas cells”, and my NYU Dr felt it was best to treat it fast before it colonized. I have been on a series of different drugs, each for a period of time. My last sputum sample showed no pseudomonas. I am currently off meds and feeling well. I just gave another sample and we will see what that shows.

Thats great news, my pulmonologist may still over ride the hospital infectious disease dr. as my results only showed a scant and was not anti biotic resistant at all from 16 months of the Big 3 and it did get rid of the MAC. I was to be treated with cyprofloxin as this is known to treat mild pseudomonas. Infectious disease specialist suggested inhaled tobramycin or aztreonam instead. Will see what the outcome is when I go back to my pulmonologist in a few weeks.
Good luck with your sample, hope all is good for you!
