Hi everybody, Still 83 and stil have pseudo, it seems it has now colonised me, I have upto date had 3 lots of iv ab's (piperacillin+tazobactam but It still remains in me.

That was until I was hospitalised with pneumonia in 2016 and given Piperacillin/tazobactam. I had a terrible reaction with a weeping rash on my arm where the drip was placed. The rash appeared in a few other areas and I had some added breathing problems to the pneumonia.

The patient completed two weeks of piperacillin/tazobactam followed by three weeks of oral amoxicillin/clavulanic acid. The abscess resolved during the otorhinolaryngology follow-up.[/i] [i] [/i] [i]Thyroid function test showed primary hyperthyroidism.
