Well, after a month of biopsies, scopes, bloodwork, etc. I have been diagnosed and confirmed with Legionella (aka Legionaires Disease). Cue the "how the hell did you get this" interviews with doctors, the Oklahoma CDC, friends. I'm just as puzzled as they are!

I'm now on 2 strong antibiotics. Hopefully, it will clear. I have to have another CTscan mid-June & more antibiotics, possibly. Scheduled a duct cleaning, but I was questioned about swimming, attending large indoor events, hospital visits/stays, etc. They're really trying to track down the source. It could be anywhere I've been with air conditioning or some type of moisture. It could even be the vegetable mister at the market that goes off while I'm getting produce.
