Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Cutibacterium acnes sinus infection

I am so sorry and very worried for you. I got bacterial meningitis of my brain from chronic sinusitis in May 2014. The organisms were pseudomonas and mrsa. I received kerosene daptomycin flatly many cephalosporins. Antibiotics of last resort. A craniotomy was done to remove abcess in my left temporal lobe. I was septic in multi organ failure intubated on a vent in medically induced coma. My heart stopped and I was coded. I use a sinus rinse like you with 1/4 teaspoon of white vinegar. I found out 13 arms of my immune system were deficient. I got 5 years of allergy shots plus various vaccines to bolster my immune system. I was hospitalized for 30 days then discharged to a nursing home. I barely missed being admitted to long tetm acute care because my bacterial load was high and the staff were unsure if it would go down . I was 53. Today I am 64. I run an air purifier 24/7 I filter my water. I had to pull many chemicals from my life style. I walk talk drive. I have 2 pitbulls who are my legal ESAs. I married again left my life long home state and moved to NM. I have ptsd. I had a lot of medical care after discharge from nursing home. Many prescriptions were tapered down in dose and stopped as my health improved. I have a seizure risk from the craniotomy but have remained seizure free. One of the hardest parts of my recovery was realizing I was a codependent never said no had no boundaries My famiky was dysfunctional so I was taught patterns of behavior that lead to me wearing myself out. I am a retired nurse. Was RN. I wore myself out caring for my first husband who was a online porn addict. Yes I had a lot of therapy too. It is important to me to remember I count and I matter. My last sinus infection was 2015. I thought I had another infection in 2016 . My ENT did a culture. Said all clear. I had to take care of dental issues too. Now I get dental cleanings every 4 months. I am a good house cleaner now so I can minimize my exposure to allergens. I use a hepa vaccuum with an enclosed dust bag..Do have an ENT doctor? An allgerist- immunologist? My experience and recovery is extensive but this whole experience was worth it. It was life changing. Take care of you. I advise exhausting every avenue to stop your infection before it is too late. Interestingly my paternal grandfather was hit in his head developed epilepsy and died at age 43.

Sorry. Typos. The antibiotics used for me for daptomycin meropenem flagl a whole host of cepalosporins. FYI I don't take antibiotics now. We have lost the war for many due to AMR. Antimicrobial resistance.
