Abstract

Gram staining of the sputum specimen from a 33-year-old man with cystic fibrosis (CF) showed Gram-positive cocci. At presentation, the patient's complaint was a dry cough that worsened upon his return from a camping trip in inclement weather the previous week. He was taking part in a clinical trial on a new CF medication, and was also taking azithromycin 500 mg once a day, and inhaled antibiotic therapy colistin and aztreonam.
