1st time w/ pseudomas aeruginosa

[Guest guest]

Found out today my son, Adam, has grown pseudomonas aeruginosa for the

1st time. On wed the drs will let us know what they will do. The nurse

said it is possible they will do nothing. I would like to hear from

others about their treatment concerning this bacteria. I was shocked

when they told me, because Adam has no symptoms of cf. We only know

about Adam because his twin brother had some problems when he was a

toddler. Since the boys were dx at 18 mths and 19 mths, Alec has been on

Creon 10 and Adek. Adam takes nothing. Some of our questions--Can drs

determine how much of the lungs are affected?, Is it a slow growing

bacteria?, How do we protect Alec from it?
