Culture's are back........

[Guest guest]

Hi all! Well, Piper went to clinic on Monday for her regular checkup, and since

she has cultured Staph twice since July, they repeated her throat swab. We got

a call from the CF Specialty Nurse today to let us know that Piper had cultured

Staph again along with Pseudomonas. It was kind of a low blow for us, we knew

that eventually she would culture it, but we had hoped that it would be a while

before she did. Anyway, her doc is putting her on Tobi and Cipro in addition to

her other meds (albuterol, Vitamax, Zyrtec, Zantac, Prevacid, Reglan, and her

enzymes).

I just needed to get this out, our families don't understand the significance of

her culturing this, but oh well, I guess ignorance is bliss........
