Dang, Rita! What an ordeal! So, will you be getting the pseudo treated?

I apologize profusely for not responding sooner to those who took the timr to read through my comedy of errors and respond. The digest is not making it into my email account and I forget to check in.

I contracted pseudomonas from a cpap I used during a hospital stay in January 2019. It showed up in my sputum last summer while I was treated for MAC and disappeared in the fall. Now it's back.

This is whst Dr McShane said; We can't really hope for it to go away. It's just important that we monitor how much there is and which antibiotics it is sensitive to in case you get sick.

Tyler does immediate susceptible testing and as I can see in the patient portal and as Dr McShane points out later in her note all the antibiotics should work if I need them.

Thanks for your support. Because I have felt sick for a long time I'm not sure what to look for.
