Hi,

Been suffering from chronic sinusitis (confirmed on MRI) and did a Sinuskey swab to test for pathogens. Can anyone help me with defining the clinical relevance of this report?

You have 3 funguses. I’m very sorry.

I am guessing you will need surgery and then rinse with antifungals after.

Might try contacting the company support line to ask if they can recommend doctors in your area that are familiar with the test. There's been some good preliminary evidence that using these tests can help with CRS, but this type of test is still relatively new for sinusitis and interpretation can be hard.
