[|AI|]  Hi and thank you for asking in Chat Doctor. I am sorry for your sisters situation As you explain she is not in good conditions. I think Eminem is a good choice for lung access, but it is not the only medication. In lung access should be use two or three antibiotics with a large spectrum. After the result of angiogram which shows the microorganisms that are involved and which antibiotic is needed the doctor should do the treatment. It will be a long treatment for 4-6 weeks with antibiotics, mucositis, simptomatics antipyretic liquids. So it will be in the hospital conditions. So I think that the doctors know the strategy of the treatment. I wish a fast recovery for your sister.
