The term cryptococcosis refers to a potentially fatal fungal disease caused by a few species of Cryptococcus. It was first identified by German physicians in the late nineteenth century. Some patients with cryptococcal meningitis experience a severe headache accompanied by fever, joint pain, vomiting, or anorexia. About half of these patients will also develop either amnesia or temporary amnesia due to the presence of amoxicillin.
Typically, these symptoms will begin to appear within two weeks of being exposed to cryptosporidium. If the condition is discovered during the course of a routine health inspection, the doctor will usually recommend cryptococcosis treatment right away.
When it comes to diagnosing this condition, it is often difficult to determine whether pulmonary cryptococcosis is caused by a parasite or bacteria. In order to diagnose the infection, doctors will typically do an isolation of the lungs and review the biopsies. Tests such as urinalysis and culture of a blood sample will also reveal results. The most common cryptococcosis treatment involves use of amphotericin B and flucytosine. However
, treatment options in persons without HIV-infection have not been well studied. Antibiotics are also used in the treatment of cryptococcal disease. These medications can be administered orally or intravenously
