My sister and I both had it when I was in the 2nd grade.  It goes by the
common name of "Fungus in the lungs".  Back then all they could do is to
say to rest and wait.  I had it for almost 2 years.  Now I understand
that there are fungal antibiotics that can be taken by mouth that will
route it out.  I suspect that oral CS would not be very effective as it
would likely not reach the fungus.  But I suspect that nebulized CS
would work quite well.

I don't understand th laser surgery at all.  That makes no sense to me.
