How is Klebsiella pneumoniae transmitted?
diagnoise with Klebsiella pneumoniae and Streptococcus pneumoniae on the 8th dec 2011. i had a partial thyroidectomy in march 2011 and this followed recurrent throat and chest infections march-dec 2011 which my gp not once asked for a spit sample and gave me 9 lots of anti biotics for without any tests.now i find out the ones he gave me have made this/these bugs even worseit was only when i was very ill they thought of a spit sample and the above result came back. so i have had this bug probably for 8 months and boy have i been illwhen i asked what i should do about finding out where i got bug, my gp was very flippant and said no one knows where u could have picked it up, no one can answer this question yet all the media coverage states its a HOSPITAL superbug caused by poor hygeine practices and dirty surgical equipment etc etci am furious and am about to write a very strong letter to the hospital and the health board demanding answers

What is the best treatment for a klebsiella infection?
Hi there! I am gonna assume that you are asking about Klebsiella pneumoniae here since there are many species, and the pneumoniae species is pretty bad because it causes pneumonia in the lungs, as the name suggests. There could be other species that infect humans 👀 I would say antibiotics would totally help but it should be prescribed by a legit doctor and the sample must be tested by the lab people to confirm the presence of such a bacteria, nail down its identity, strain type and most importantly, whether it's susceptible to any of the antibiotics. In my experience, I had this bacteria grown on an agar plate and it was really slimy due to its capsule, making it a rather notorious pathogen. A good number of them are antibiotic-resistant due to the ability to chuck out antibiotics with the help of an efflux pump. In conclusion, there could be some antibiotics out there to treat it as long as nobody at home attempts to self medicate, which I highly don't recommend at all, and goes to see a decent doctor for a proper diagnosis. Hope this was the response you were looking for! 😄
What factors influence test results?
It depends on the test. The best thing to do if you are going in for lab tests for a medical condition is to ask your doctor if there are any special instructions that you should follow before going in for the test...and follow those instructions.

It takes a special drug test to detect suboxone/subutex. It won't show up on any regular drug test for a job or anything else. Just like steroids

Can you eat before TSH test?
Yes you can usually eat before a TSH test, but you should ask your doctor to be sure, as he/she knows your personal health history and if there are any special needs outside of established norms. Eating typically will not affect a TSH test.
