| Prayers again for me As everyone knows I had major back surgery two weeks ago. I had the staples and stiches out last Wednesday. I noticed the site where they have my implant (right Hip) was all red and sore an swollen. There is a 5 inch incision there and another 6 inch in the middle of my back. Anyway before I had the staples etc out I had the doctor to look at it. Well, He said I had a b bad bacterial infection in the site. I am on high antibiotics and he lanced it to help it drain. YUK! it hurt too! Well I go back Monday to have it check again. I take my medicine like a good girl but it don't seem to be getting any better. Its still very hot and swollen and red.. in fact I think it looks redder. I was running a temperature yesterday ( 101.2 ) all day. I felt crappy and slept most of the day away. The doctor said if no better I will have to have I.V. but in to get antibiotics that way. I am scared. I am so scared of staph infections. The way My luck as been the last two years I don't want this. Please pray that it will get better. So far the Spinal Implant is helping with the pain in my legs and back, otherwise it will have to come back and Then I have to get a more evasive surgrery. Please pray... I know The power of and YT sure has it. IT works for me! Thanks so much YT Friends! Brenda & Max & Bobo & Mattie & Libby Max His bootiful widdle girl Phoebe

| Just prayed for you. Prayer does make a difference. I had back surgery in Nov. and I can certainly sympathize. I had my 4th disc removed and I have total nerve damage in my left leg. The doctor said my bones are also shifting. I know the pain you are going through and alot of times no one understands until they go through it. I do think that doctor should have gotten right on that when you were red and swollen. Don't let it go on if you think something is wrong because that does not sound good. Better safe than sorry. God bless!!! |

When is he planning to do the iv? I think the sooner the better, since oral ant. are not seeming to help. Maybe the iv ant. will kick its butt and get rid of it sooner! You poor girl!
