My son started to culture these too. He is almost 7 months. They don't treat his either. We were told they were common, and not to worry. They did say if he got sick and his regular pediatrician wanted to use abx they needed to be in contact to let them know which one to use.

Yep, Andrew has cultured both. He cultured staph consistantly until about 12 mos. ago when his PA started to kick in..makes me think of those who have commented about staph keeping PA at bay....

He has also cultured H Flu. I've been told the same...very common, just something to keep an eye on, but certainly not one of the bugs to be overly concerned about.

Thank you for asking this question! My 1yo got these bugs just recently. We had flown down to our capital city some 2500kms away to have a broncoscopy and a CT scan to look into some other issues (really, really fast breather), he sounded all great in the lungs before the procedure as the docs all commented. However, they found his lungs were a mess with gunk. The tested and came back with those 2 bugs, because we had flown down we were hospitalised and isolated whilst they checked what bugs they were and then kept us for a 12 day stay and then sent home on antibiotics for a further 6 weeks. 3 weeks to go on the stuff - i hate it as it makes him suseptable to getting sunburnt easily. My other boy who is 8.5 and has CF as well has never got that Hemo Influ one. So again thanks for asking the question and thanks to those who respond
