Culture shows moderate mucoid PA (normal) and Achromobacter which wasnt there last time but seems to be there more (my theory anyway) when I'm sick.
PA is susc to colistin, zosyn, and piperacillin
AB is susc to ceftazimide, meropenem, and piperacillin

piperacillin is zosyn, right? or at least one of the components of zosyn...
ReplyDeletesounds like you have some pretty strong options, even though i'm sure it doesn't feel like much. just remember that your lungs aren't a petrie dish. my CF doc constantly reminded me that things sometimes work even when the cultures show resistance. my achromobacter is panresistant, but it still responds to some drugs. good luck!
