Yes it’s aspergillosis,, the doctor went in and removed it from my lungs and vocal cords..He didn’t seem like it’s any big deal.. I will get a list of medication later..but after doing some research (I’m very scared) I don’t know if the medicine can stay ahead of the fungus.. plus I’m still coughing and having acid come up all and the burning in chest.. I went to minor emergency clinic ..BP is staying high, sore throat coughing and acid reflux (I think it’s LPR) I know it’s LLR.. I’ve been on omeprazole 40mg 1 2xa day..for the last year.. but emergency clinic doc looked at my throat and said she could see the fungus on the back of my throat..she suggested I go see a ENT so I do..he went up nose and looked at the top valve.. not sure if that’s what it’s called..but he said I have LPR and is going to give something that will knock it out..but I’m not satisfied with him.. he didn’t look at my throat..
I got medication the nx day...(it’s the same stuff I’ve been on.. talked to doctor he said let’s gv this some..plus he would add something else.. but I’m thinking if omeprazole was working I wouldn’t be where I’m at..
I’ve had a Nissan fundoliption..but back when the coughing and short of air started, acid coming up..( I had taken a very very hard fall right in the gut and rib cage..) I think that fall did something to the Nissan.. I had my surgery n 2010 and had great results..
For the fungus: sinatrol 3 x a day.. NAC N-,acetylene -l- cysteine I guess it fight the fungus..
Then the Er nystatin sis 10000
Promethazine syp DM

But Im scared that I’m not getting a good check up.. to just rual out that it’s not any where else. Because it’s had 6 months to grow..
I don’t know what to!; do I give it another bother month??or try to find a different doctor
Thank u

@acid2come- Good morning. It is always a good practice to seek a second opinion. And I wouldn't wait. He really didn't look at your throat? Did your doctor know that you were already on the same med that he ordered?

@acid2come
I think I have to agree with @lioness and @merpreb . You really need to see a second doctor. It’s been a couple of months since your problem started! I’m glad that the fungus is being treated, but has anyone discussed where you might have gotten it from?
You’ve been a great advocate for yourself; just wish the doctors were working as hard. I keep thinking about you and hope you’re getting better.
