Well...Hmmmmph!

The culture's didn't grow a thing. In some ways that's good and some ways it's bad. She's certainly got a problem because she's got an awful cough and sinus issues and now the doctor is saying that maybe what's growing is much deeper than they can get in the office. Translation: Be put under general for cultures and another CT Scan.

He wants to put her another two antiobiotics and see how she does with those before we do the sinus endoscopy.

Her yeast infection still isn't gone so we are going back to the GP doctor this morning for that and to talk about her treatment plan.

We are trying like heck to keep her off of any uneccessary antibiotics because she's been on so many already. It's hard to choose to put her two more when we don't know what were treating but the only way to know what we're treating is to put her under and that certainly isn't something were jumping for joy to do either.

So needless to say, I'm doing a lot of pondering day in and day out...in the shower, while loading the dishwasher, when cooking dinner, everytime I look at her...what to do, what to do?
