According to my pulmonologist I have chronic Pseudomonas identified by mucoid strain in my sputum samples. That means I will never get rid of it (according to him). In my case they want to treat me ongoing to keep the Pseudomonas down at least if not get "rid of it". That treatment would include inhaled antibiotic for two weeks on and then off and Azithromycin 3 times a week. However I was unable to do either due to side effects (only tried both for VERY short time). I have other health issues unfortunately. For a more serious exacerbation they would give me Cipro or a number of IV antibiotics. Thus far I have actually never done any treatment for Pseudomonas which is not the norm. I nebulize with Saline and do some other things.

While being treated for Pseudomonas are you also on the 3 antibiotic regimented for MAC?
