Guest guest Posted August 3, 2003 Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 Hi- Has anyone ever heard of a " fungus ball " ? Doctor found a rather large white spot on 's CT scan, and said this might be what it is! He just got done with 2 weeks of IV antibiotics and his PFT's did not improve at all, although his cough and mucous production has improved and he gained 2 lbs. If this spot is a fungus, why wouldn't it have shown up in the sputum culture? We're going back for a bronchoscopy on Tuesday. Let me know if anyone has any advice. Thanks, Kelli (mom to Christi - no CF and getting married in 2 weeks, 18 w/CF, and 10 no CF) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
