Throat Culture Results

These are the throat culture results that her old Cystic Fibrosis Clinic has done on her. The first one was taken January 2007 when she was just two months old and the last one was taken February 2011 when she was 4 years old. Her new clinic is Childrens Hospital Of Philadelphia and the results are NOT on this blog. Her old clinic NEVER once called and told me she cultured these things below except for ONE culture and I highlighted it in red. so I trusted him and never checked on my own. I now regret not checking these results until this morning. I felt as if I could trust him. From doing a little of my own research, reading the recommended course of treatment on the lab results and seeing other things posted these things should have been treated with antibiotics.

I would love any and all input from my CF Family on their thoughts of the things that she has cultured in the past. My anxiety is through the roof!

  1. The only ones I would be worried about would be the Staph since it has shown up so many times and the B. Cep. She cultured it once, so they need to make sure that was a true culture. If so treatment needs to start so she doesn't culture it again.

    Take what results she gets from CHOP and go from there. Don' stress on what should have been done, focus on what you can do now. Heck if I looked back on all the shit I should have done I might jump off a bridge LOL

    HUGS!!!

  3. I totally agree with Amy. The staph because of what I explained to you on FB and for sure check into the b cepacia. I can't believe you weren't informed about the cepacia. Hope you get some answers...
