Thanks Hope, yes have lots of probiotics and are giving him them to him between the cipro doses (lunchtime and before bed) as he is on cipro twice a day. His chest is ok, a little congested but not coughing a lot at all, but I can hear there is something definitely going on in there. I just wonder where he would have picked this resistant form of haemophilis from, any ideas of where this bacteria is commonly found? Thanks for your suggestions Hope, I really appreciate them
