@brigby, For now, you should avoid gardening and yard work altogether. You would not believe the things you can pick up in the way of molds and pathogenic bacterias from plants, leaves, and soil. Also, avoid swimming in anything. No pools, no hot tubs, rivers or lakes. It sounds like you are having immunodeficient issues. Stay out of old houses that may have mold and especially hospitals. I don't mean to scare you, but a red flag goes up when I read that you have multiple infectious things.

@windwalker888 Hi Teri, thanks, and you’re not shocking me here, LOL. I guess that’s what makes me a little nervous: I’m able to function at a fairly normal level, but these lab results keep coming back suspect. I’m sure I’ll hear from my ID doc at Stanford soon...he errors on the side of caution.
