Follow up and ongoing monitoring
Hi All,
I just found this sub and wanted to see what are you doing if anything in terms of following up and monitoring VF?
I was diagnosed 2 years ago, went through treatment with Fluca for about 6-9 months and luckily everything got cleared. Blood level were normal, no titer and CT scan showed no signs of infection.
But ever since then, it left what I think is scar tissue on my lung. My lung, were the infection was, pops daily, I think air pocket builds up and I almost always feel the pressure sensation in that area. Sometimes slight discomfort.
Back then and last time I saw a specialist and even my own doctor said, You are done. Don’t worry about it and forget about it.
Are any of you following up annually? What have you been told by your doctor or specialist?
In the back of my mind, I feel like I should probably keep an eye on it, but as you know this disease is tricky and only CT scan can tell you if something is going on. Even blood work is not as reliable.
Anything you can share, recommend is welcome.
For the fellow members who are currently going through treatment and suffering. I wish you fast recovery and hang in there. I hope it clears soon.
