has anyone had a diagnosis of chronic strep? If so what treatments/protocolsi were you treated with.

I am still trying to get a grasp on Chlamydia Pneumoniae, I just found out on 4-11-07.  But I have been sick for awhile  .  I am just starting Antibioticsi again......eeeeek .  My symptoms have been sinus infectionsi and uppper respitory infections , Phlaringitis, Broncotitis, Asthmai.  In and out of the Dr. office the month of April, and my throat swelled shut I could go on and on.  I ended up at an Infetious disease Dr.

PURPOSE: To detect Chlamydia pneumoniae (C. pneumoniae) gene in a patient with bilateral orbital musoca-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. DESIGN: Interventional case report. METHODS: A 47-year-old Chinese man with recurrent bilateral orbital masses underwent surgical biopsy. Ophthalmologic and radiographic examinations, routine histology, immunohistochemistry, and molecular analysis for immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH), bcl-2/IgH gene translocation, and Chlamydia genesi were performed. RESULTS: Pathology revealed orbital MALT lymphoma with B-cell monoclonality. In addition to IgH gene rearrangement, C. pneumoniae DNA was detected in the lymphoma. CONCLUSIONS: The finding of C. pneumoniae molecular signatures in this case suggests a possible association of Chlamydia and orbital MALT lymphoma. The infection may contribute to the development of the lymphoma.
