Hopefully when the MIC is back whatever antibiotic the staph is not resistant to will also work for the eColi. There really is nothing else suggested at this point. Our plan is to try and pray a lot....if we cannot get rid of this it will eventually go to her kidneys and then systemic. Very depressing. BUT...I am hopeful.
Praying that the antibiotics will work for Gabby in both instances. Hopeful that she responds well and is back to her sweet self in no time. Sending "hugs" to you Linda, I can only imagine how tough this is on you.
