such kind words! Thanks!
Quote From: jewelsfBut don't worry so much about it. My husbands been through it, a year also and many different diagnosis until he finally got the right one. It's been over 2 1/2 years now and he's doing fine. He even had major surgery and everything went well. read my post under jewelsf, I tell the story there. We made love throughout the whole time that he had it, we shared almost everything except towels, and I never caught it. Due to a disability I have a very low immune system and the specialist said that I was alright. I know that it's VERY hard to deal with but ease up on yourself. You don't have cooties and I would shake your hand and give you a hug anytime. Good luck and I hope you feel better. Julie Jewelsf, thank you for the kind support! I am so glad things are much better for you and yours. Personally, I don't "fear" this as much as I fear spreading it around. I hope I don't seem to be "picking your brain" with my next few questions but its information you may have that I could never get either of the 4 doctors to agree upon! UGH!! LOL First, is it true that once you contract it, you always have it and it can flare up at any time? Second, I've been told that continual use of anti biotics can actually become a problem as there are only 2 or 3 anti biotics that will treat the MRSA and if taken for too long the body can actually become immune to these anti biotics and cease to work. Third, at what point when I have a "spot" should I become concerned. I know those horrid knots are pretty tell tale as they are unlike any other type of abcess I have ever had, but even a blemish on my chin can make me concerned. Lastly, is there some everyday OTC vitamin, mineral etc that could assist in keeping the out breaks at bay? ROFL, hope this isn't too much of a quest for information to throw at you just seems you and your husband have found a course of action that could put many peoples fears to rest. Any information would be greatly appreciated!!
