Kimberly...I am really sorry about all this...Just remember there's always light after the dark tunnel...I am keeping you and your hubby in my prayers and hopes he gets well soon:lovewings |
I feel so bad for your hubby. A couple years ago my sister kept getting staph infection, and no matter what they did it kept coming back. Finally she went to an infectious disease specialist and I don't think she's had it for awhile, so maybe that's something to consider, or at least when he gets insurace as well...I know how that is too unfortunatly. You guys are in my prayers for both! |

He'll be in my prayers. I've been seeing a lot about staph on the TV and two kids in the local school system were just diagnosed. |
Prayers comming to you and your dh , I hope he feeling better very soon. |
Kimberly, I'm so sorry your family is going through this! I contracted MRSA staph in the incision site when I had aortic valve replacement last May. We fought it - in hospital and out, on very strong IV antibiotics - for three months. I was in hospital four times in three months. Each time we thought we had it licked, it would rear its ugly head. It's very nerve-wracking. I worried about my family contracting it, and about killed us with bleach! lol Yes, staph (even MRSA staph) colonizes on all our skin. If immune stystems are healthy, and we're not compromised in some way (surgery, or a cut where it can get inside), we go along just fine. Staph is everywhere - so the Infectious Disease team tells me :( . |
Poor hubby, hope they will be able to get rid of it for good, prayers coming your way ! |
Keeping your hubby in our daily prayers... |
OMG Kim I just was able to see this, hope all is well and I'm sending lots of get well wishes and prayers:) Bailey sends you hugs and kisses:animal36 GET WELL SOON!!!!! |
Prayers are going out for you during this difficult times. |
I read through this post rather quickly and may have over looked it, but the easiest way to stop a staph infection is with simple handwashing. Just like life, germs-infection have a cycle that they go through. If you want to break the cycle you have to take something out of it. Hand washing does just that. It does not have to be with super hot water or anti bacteria soap. Use warm water and any soap,,,the trick is to use fricition when washing your hands and letting the water run down your wrist to your finger tips. Oh yea don't forget to sing your ABC's when you wash your hands. If you wear fake nails or a lot of polish germs tend to live under them...so if your nurse comes up with the best nails you have ever seen make sure she washes her hands and puts on gloves before even touching you. Thats my advise,,,,and take all of your antibiotics.... |
Hey Kim this is the first I am seeing this. I hope everything is going ok. I know insurance rates are crazy!!! I work for an ins co and its high just for me. We are keeping you and your family in our prayers! |
