Does your new friend have a name? I suppose the answer to your question is that it depends on what your new bug has in mind. How are you feeling now?

Well Donald I too was born in 1931!l don’t know the name of my new bug but l do know that co-trimoxaloze is the only antibiotic that attacks it furthermore it quickly gains resistance to that therapy -a real stinker!

so sorry to hear you’re not well. Co-trimoxazole has worked wonders for me and my bronchiecstatis recently so I hope it does the same for you xx

Thats a problem that hopefully will not cause you to much discomfort and maybe the gp or consultant can give you a cocktail or combination drug that can help

Try to keep coughing up the gunk if you can, I know easier said than done. Hope they find something to help you.

I’m so sorry to hear that. They found i had a super bug when I was in hospital for a couple of days with Cellulitis. They also found I’m resistant to all penicillins now. I must admit it is a worry.

Hope your natural immunity kicks in to give this bug a good kicking while the anti-b weakens it.
