@shashig morning. I’m set up for a Maxillary Antrostomy on Oct 7th… my left maxillary has had and may still have the bacteria Pseudomonas . Ive had live infections both in the left maxillary and in my lungs . Drips of the bacteria drip down your throat and into your lungs . Right now , the cultures and lab reports are showing moderate Pseudomonas colonized . Which means there is no live infection in both the sinus nor the lungs so no need to treat . I was on IV antibiotics for 2 sessions last year 14 days and this past Feb for. 21 days . My ENT Dr thinks he will be able to eradicate the Pseudonomas with the surgery .
My Pulmonologist is doing a chest CT scan to look at nodules in my lungs as one has grown by 15% in 6 weeks. So that will be done soon.
I guess I didn’t realize that people walk around with bacteria all the time . I’m 85 years old and this is a first for me !
I did have COVID back at end of 2019 Nov and Dec.. right before Covid was named Covid in Feb 2020 . Although it’s not official on the hospital records as such . However my contingent of Doctors now think that’s what I had that caused heart and lung damage ! I also have Tinnitus in the left ear . Seems everything is on the left !
Al, the best, take good care and sincerely hope you can get yours under control. Kay B.
