Ry Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 John has a fungal infection in his lungs. He started medication on Friday and it does not seem to be improving. Anyone have any suggestions to help get rid of this? Just wondered if there were any home remedies out there to try in addition to the meds. Also, I was curious how long it takes for the medication to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laban Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Ry, Bill was on Diflucan for his thrush, which is a fungal infection. Don't have any idea if it's the same when it's in the lungs. I hope someone here has some good answers and or remedies. Blessings to you and John. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mary colleen Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Ry: I don't know anything about this one. However, I'd guess this a pretty trying time for you both and I will certainly keep you in my thoughts and prayers. MC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don M Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 Hi Mrs Ry: I browsed a bit and found this thread: http://ehealthforum.com/health/topic40545.html also, http://healthtruth.reachlocal.net/2.php http://www.fungusfocus.com/candida/cfun ... l_info.htm I am sorry John has this complication and hope it can soon be fixed.

Welthy Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Ry, Sorry about this new bump for John. Someone else on our board had a fungal infection -- said it was something like a fungus ball in the lung. I tried to do a word search, but it's not working at the moment. When you have time, do a search. Good luck and feel better soon John! Welthy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connie B Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Sorry to hear that Ry. All I ever heard was they throw a bunch of drugs at it until they find one to work. Antibiotic's. Hope they find the right one soo. (((((((((((((JOHN & RY)))))))))))))))))) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
