Thank you so much. Just a few remaining if you do not mind. What do you use for a nose spray? And which vest have you found works for you? And if Colistin is not approved how does it get prescribed and what if any side effects with it? One thing i have noticed is that Pseudomonas seems to crop up for people after long standing antibiotics. In my case i either had it all along since they never tested me for it till i suggested it or i got it after being on Augmentin for 4 weeks (that was a long time for my frail body). Thanks for the feedback on the Meropenem. That is encouraging to hear.
@irenea8 I should also add that no two people with lung disease are alike. Something that works for one, may not work for another. Your best bet is to rely on the expertise of your pulmonologist to work with you to come up with the best treatment plan for you. It is sometimes trial an error, but hopefully in working with a pulmonologist you can come up with what works best for you.
