Is your son on maintenance zithromax? Thus far, there is not a straing of step resistent to zithro that I'm aware of. I've never been found of having to put Micah on maintenance zithro but the one thing it has done is prevent him from contracting strep. Unfortunately, certain infections such...

I completey disagree with the concept of simply getting out of the way of the docots in treating a child's CF condition. That might hav been status quo decades ago with any medical conditions. However, as parents today, we learn that we need to be proactive, educated and partner with our...
