Blastomycosis is scary I wonder how it is treated

[@kenthedude2758]

Usually oral itraconazole for 6-12 months or in severe cases Amphotericin B

[@PrincipalScratcher1]

I was hospitalized for 21 days in 2019 after being diagnosed. Luckily, I was diagnosed within 4 or 5 days. i was treated with Amphotericin-B and Itraconazole for 12 months.
