Mycobacterium fortuitum - just recd the diagnosis today where have had a tramflap procedure with on going infection on the ab incision. I am know referred to specialist from my plastic surgeon team for drug therapy mgmt program.  HOWEVER I like to read articles therefore I have full knowledge finding limited info on subject matter.  I also had 2 blood transfusions after my tramflap surgery could Mycobacterium fortuitum come from a blood transfusion.  WHAT IS the therapy program appears 2 - 6 months? COULD is cause any further damage to organs not reading that in limited articles I have read? I dont see where it is life threatening ? Thank you for your attention !
