Thank you for your post and welcome to EmpowHer.
Pseudomonas is a very difficult bacteria to get rid of-- because it can affect nearly any tissue that may be compromised and can tolerate "living" in nearly any temperature. Usually, Pseudomonas is treated with long-term antibiotics or with surgery. Unfortunately, as long as its got a host and environment to live in, it will fight to stay.
Since you have had 5 surgeries, I am assuming you have an otolaryngologist (or ENT) that you trust? Aggressive treatment is the only way to tackle Pseudomonas-- don't give up hope and continue to do everything you can to finally eliminate the bacteria.
