About a month ago I had some PFT's done and they swabbed my throat. In Phoenix my cultures came back 'normal' but for the first time in a long time the culture came back "Cepacia". I am a little bummed about it, however I am feeling great, no fever, no drop in pft's and just a few days ago I ran a mile in about 9 minutes. So needless to say I don't feel any different and that is a good sign. The Cepacia could be culturing from my sinuses and drained a little into my throat. I will be starting some inhaled antibiotics to see if I can kill it. . .repeat PFT's in about a month and re-swab to check the cultures. I am praying that the cepacia doesn't effect my beautiful lungs and I can keep going full speed ahead like I have the last 3.5 years :) I am sure it will clear up with no ill effects. It's just never fun to hear that cultures come back with growing anything.
I hope ya'll enjoy your holiday weekend! I am off set and home. . .unfortunately Bryan has to work ALL WEEKEND and even on Monday, so I will be chillin' this weekend. Can't complain about that too much.
