I just got done reading through the thread and sure appreciate the thoughts and prayers offered. I wish I could respond to each of you individually but know that I do in thought.
I went to the ER two weeks ago with a BP of 57/46. I never saw the ER people react so fast in my life. They were pretty sure it was an infection but all the blood work was inconclusive. It wasn’t till a few days later when the site of the outpatient surgery I had swelled some that they were able to drain it and run tests which showed a MRSA infection.
The surgeon drained and packed the site for a day or two but there was so much drainage that they put an ostomy bag on my back and the site has been draining since then, over a week now and still putting out. The fuid draining out is still somewhat cloudy.
I am on Zyvox, which is effective against MRSA, through Sunday.
I am hoping that I’ll be out of the woods by then. Please continue to pray that the infection would be completely beat and the drainage would become clear and finally stop. I have some minor discomfort but nothing compared to the pain an infection like that can cause.
Thanks again for all the prayers that carried me through this experience and thanks to God for His sustaining grace.
Keeping you in continued prayer mm
It’s great to see you back metmom!! Sure had me on my knees for a while there. Prayers will continue that you see complete healing.
I am thanking God right now that you are improving.
Excellent news.
Are you keeping any samples for show and tell? :)
Yikes! But praise God here you are!
I contacted MRSA during my stay in the hosptial, also. Quarantined for it. If they can't keep hospitals clean now, I'd hate to think if obamacare isn't repealed - what they'll be like.
Mine was following a long stay in the hospital, yours as as an outpatient. Seems no one has a chance!
Satan has come to kill, steal and destroy but we chose LIFE, we chose JESUS!!
Now we all have another infection to get rid of that came to kill/rob/destroy - Obama! And we WILL be successful.
METMOM IS BACK because NO weapon formed against her shall prosper as this is the heritage of the servants of the LORD. It will all drain out - much to the chagrin of the enemy. You proved he's a liar!
Jesus said 'You are healed' before we were born - so we believe we are before we see it manifest. That TRUTH, JESUS, always was - so satan's the LIAR!! We had health and satan tried to rob it and we said you can't have it, it's mine as JESUS gave it to me. ALL is WELL when we believe! Thank YOU, JESUS!!
