Hello! in a sputum test, what do moderate gram positive cocci, rare gram positive rods, few gram negative rods mean? my wife has cvid and is very ill.

Mgt: An inbox consultation may be made online to better advise. I would suggest a culture of the sputum, including a fungal culture. If your wife is ill, please have a chest imaging study and discuss iv broad spectrum antibiotics with your PCP.
