My husband was just diagonsed with invasive aspergillousis. He does not have a compromised immune system according to the doctors. He works in an agriculture setting where these fungi are prevalant.
What is the outlook for him? He has it in his ears and mastoid bone but seems to be responding to the V-fend anti-fungal drug he is on.
However, he went for 6 months with symptoms before they identified it. Is it too late to be cured? What are the side effects of the drug v-fend?
Is their anyone out there who has recovered form this rare disease and can advise me as to what we are facing? Help.
