Hi Joann, have you seen your suseptibility test for your pseudomonas? Ask for a hard copy if you do not have a portal in which to view it online. If there is no suseptibility test, ask your dr why there isn't. How can they know which antibiotics will work if that test is not performed?

My dr claims they tested for Mac and did susceptibility test but I have not see the results and the Mac test came back negative per my dr but I see in my portal it was not complete due to the Sample qty being too small. Don’t know what to believe . I did ask for another Mac test which will be done again with today’s Culture drop off. We will see. My cat scan came back with no significant change since March so that’s good news and dr says looks like infection is gone but I know it’s not based on how I feel and the color of the drip off I did today. But I took his word for it and asked if I should stop the antibiotics both inhaled and oral he said no. If infection is gone why not stop them ? I didn’t ask because I know it’s not gone. I guess not I just wait til the test results come back.
