This is a very difficult thing to get rid of, but there are medications that will eventually get rid of it. You need to see a pulmonologist who is experienced with fungal infections or an Infectious Disease doc. This is definitely beyond most primary care docs......and the good ones know it.

My experience with infections and pneumonia is just enough to keep me on guard to prevent another event as much as possible. A visit from an Infectious Disease doctor during one ICU stay was not very revealing. He asked a lot of questions but offered few suggestions. I did learn from him that medical-grade Manual Honey can be used to fight bacterial infections of many kinds - both internal and for wounds.

But here is an article you might read to find a lot of clues about the Pseudonomas infection troubling you. Just read what makes sense to you, and let your Doc fill in the blanks if there is any possible help with the research described here:

They gave me Voriconazole, but I had reactions to it. Changed to Posaconazole, which worked great. But your doctor should be informed about which medication’s for which.type of infection.

You’re welcome. I hope you can get some help. I know how difficult it is to have those Pseunomas.
