I was diagnosed with this my last sputum culture-it freaked me out when I first heard it. My CF clinic told me that I don't really need to stress about it....I plan to ask them more about it on my appt this Thursday.

They say it is showing up more and more....the nurse was saying something like maybe now the cultures are just catching it-and it has always existed? I guess it can be a little more stubborn to treat. I did some searches of the CF forums and you can find more information about it.

Both my boys have had SM at different times. I think they used Bactrim on it. They haven't had it for a while now, so I guess it went away.

DS cultured a few years ago and was put on Septra. His only symptom was sort of a dry throat clearing cough. His was resistant to Ceftaz, something he's never been on before.
