First I want to know if your diagnosis is confirmed. In most patients this disease will start manifesting in early childhood or infancy. If your diagnosis is confirmed then you must be taking prophylactic antibiotics and antifungals for a life time.
Next Steps
If chronic granulomatous disease is suspected but not confirmed by any test, you should perform certain tests to confirm or rule out the diease.
