Waiting waiting waiting.....

Not alot going on today, Ok I take that back..... There was alot going on today, although none of it was really what I wanted to go on today. I was waiting to see what the ENT said about the docs from Denver, or the possibility of sugery, or if we were just gonna hope the anti's start doing their job, and at least clear the infection up enough to make the headaches subside into some sort of manageble nuisance. I didn't see the ENT today, but my sources (my Pulm) say that he has a slot penciled in for me tomorrow, and that he is still waiting to hear back from Denver as well. I guess that's ok, hopefully the docs in Denver got back to him today, and he will know more tomorrow, it's not like I'm going anywhere ;)

They did decide to switch up my antis today since I still have this coarse nagging cough that normally by this time is something of a distant memory (don't get me wrong, I cough, but ususally, unless I'm sick sick I don't sound like I've been smoking since I left the womb) Also The fullness in my sinus's is usually better, which, surprise surprise, is not getting better either. They are in the process of doing sensitivity studies to see if my bugs may have grown a resistance, but so far no word on that front. The infectious disease doc decided since I really felt like I should be feeling better to just change up the drugs and see if that improves the yuckies. Previously I was on Doribax, and Tobi with a short stint on some Vanc, but since no MRSA was cultured they pulled me off that. I am now doing a continuous infusion of Cefipime. Something that I've never done before, and although I've only been on it for about 3 1/2 hours, I'm already finding the IV pole tedious. they are also talking about maybe trying to desensitize me to Cipro again, but we're gonna give the Cefepime a chance to do it's job before we decide. They also want to continue with the Tobi, but are holding my dose tonight for a reason unbeknownst to me (although I'm assuming it's compatibility issues). That's all that's new, cross your fingers that the Cefipime works, and that the yuckies go away.
