I have not tried it yet. I had a lot on my plate today. I can't use my PICC line to draw blood any more so I will have to go to the hospital Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays for at least 5 more weeks. And on Fridays I have to go to the hospital early to have my blood drawn just before my dose of Amikacin, then go to the Home Care office for the dose, and then wait around for an hour and then go back to the lab to have my post Amikacin blood drawn. I also had a doc appointment today.

You did have a busy day, glad you are back safe at home. What happedned to your picc line?

blood in an enemy of the line and the nurses just don't flush it out fast enough when drawing blood so we were not able to get blood out today.Originally Posted by elephant

Do they think they can fix your PICC line? It didn't last very long.

The meds will go in but the blood wont come out.

Oh, well that's good at least! Otherwise you'd have to be in the hospital for your daily treatments. Hang in there, Phil.

Phil, how long will you have the treatment going. I wish I had a hang in there Smiley. BTW I live close to the Mission Racetrack and today they must have some super duper drag races because it sounds every couple of minutes like a jet engine take off.

I will have at least 5 more weeks of the IV Amikacin and Cefoxitin. If by the end of 5 weeks I have not produced any negative sputum samples then I will have to continue longer on the Amikacin. I am also on oral Clarithromycin and will have to stay on that for at least 13 more months.
I used to be into racing of all sorts but have lost interest over the last few years.
