Diane- what are you on to rid or shrink the fungus ball? have you done inhaled ambizone (sp) or IV amphateracine (sp)? Sorry, they are words I don't use regularly. I have had a lot of problems with fungus, on Itraconazole always, but never had a fungus ball.</end quote></div>
I was first on Itraconazole but it didnt help at all, in fact it grew a bit while i was on that so my Dr. switched me to Vfend ( Voriconazole) and it seems to be helping. I have heard of the iv amphateracin (sp) and my nurse said thats one i wouldnt want to have to go on since the side effects are nasty. I just wish ths dumb thing would leave me. I will be leaving for my cat scan soon so i'll update later on tonight.
