Pseudomonas putida; watch and wait?

I think it very possible I aspirated, but it seems more likely that I aspirated some of the sinus drainage. After MAC was ruled out, my sinus issues became the working theory for my lung problems.
I did have reflux in the spring when I was doing the postural drainage recommended by Mayo and Tobrax drops in head hanging position for an opaque frontal sinus (last ditch effort to avoid surgery-it worked). I took reflux meds until sinus cleared and I stopped the postural drainage as well.

@pacathy A frequent debate I have with myself, is it sinus or gerd/reflux related? In my case, maybe both!

I'd be interested to learn more about what you did to clear your frontal sinuses. Tobrax drops? Please tell more.

Since I've been taking long acting mucinex twice daily, I'm imagining sinuses draining bit by bit, encouraged by this case study.
