Well, at least you all are home & his treatment is continuing. Will he have to have any PT after this? Prayers & hugs are coming you guys way until I read he's been released from the surgeon's care. |
That is what they were telling me they think it was staph. They did send the tissue for a culture but I was not told it was MRSA so I am assuming it was their original thinking, staph. I was also told this is common in knee surgery patients????? I don't think he will need PT after all this. He really is doing well considering all he has been through!! We see the surgeon on Tuesday so maybe I will know more at that time. Thanks for the prayers and well wishes everyone!!
