A member asked:

Reoccuring respitory infections and sweats since i had mrsa in my left lung, does it ever end?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pulmonary doctor: You should be seen and evaluated by a pulmonologist (lung expert). You may have either persistent infection or structural changes in your lung which predispose to recurrent disease (bronchiectasis, etc.). Hope you get well soon.
