A member asked:
My husband is a transplant recipient and recently contracted histoplasmosis. what should we do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk to his doctor: Your husband's transplant specialist is very familiar with infections and will know if he needs this treated. Far better than a stranger on the internet. If my transplant patient had a symptomatic infection with a fungus, i'd treat it, but if it was just a positive blood test, then i might not.
