This is an area for patients and carers to submit blog posts and interact with others in the aspergillosis community.
I am at a loss.
My mother was diagnosed in 2017 with Aspergillious.
Prior to this for around 8 years she has been treated as a COPD condition gradually getting worse.
She now can barely walk talk eat breath, yet no one is considering that she may still have Aspergillus !
Does anyone think that it could actually still be this fungal infection?
obviously there is much more detail and symptoms but didn’t want to post just yet. Really looking for some support and guidance
Thank you
