could it be cepacia?

Tammy - I don't have first hand experience with cepacia, but our CF doctor told us at our last visit that studies are starting to suggest cepacia isn't as bad as it has been believed to be all this time. He said that the correlation between cepacia and lifespan is beginning to be viewed as similar to that of pseudomonas. Even if it is cepacia, it seems that it's not as bad as once thought. I hope you get the results soon!

Oh, I'm so sorry. My heart breaks for you if she's truly culturing it. I'm sure they'll order more tests and if it is, to determine the strain, etc. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0">

My heart breaks thinking of how very hard you have all worked to keep the cross-infection at bay. My heart breaks for Dalton who might feel responsible. I hate CF and I hate all these stupid bugs!!!

I have heard that some strains can be antibiotic sensitive -- I hope you can eradicate this.
