Oh bother- gotta go see the Dr. again!

Oh Bother,   I have a had a very nasty virus for the past week & finally am feeling better, then yesturday my  incision area opened up and IT'S INFECTED AGAIN- PLUS BLISTERY, AND THERE ARE SEVERAL PLACES THAT ARE ANGRY RED. I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS- THE SURGERY WAS TO CLEAR ALL OF THIS UP!! I go see Dr. Inman on Thurs. unless anything changes- then must call her right away. Please keep me in your thoughts that I don't have to go in again for another surgery. I don't mean to sound like a needy baby, just am getting so frustrated & tired of all of this.  I did get a talking to about not going to the emergency room when I was so sick with the virus- what, I was told not to- of course by my PCP. Thankfully I am over that- now just ready for better days ahead.   Thanks everyone for listening- just needed to vent alittle. (((hugs))) Ellen

Ah sweetie, I feel so bad for you! I hope your incision gets better soon! You know what we were talking about? The call came in and the answer was yes! Woo-hoo! Now, does that put a smile on your face? It does mine....now. When the call came in, I was in the bathroom  because something didn't settle right.It didn't take me long to get with the program...lol. Well hon, let me know what Dr. Inman says...k? Sherri

Oh Sweetie, You are in my prayers.  God love your heart!

Awww. You don't sound like a baby.  I'd whine also.  Have they cultured this infection to see what it is growing?  Heaven forbid it is one of the antibiotic resistant strains, but unless they do a culture and sensitivity testing they wont know.  It may just be a strain of bacteria that is resistant to what you have been taking.  I'd ask about it.   Hope you get this thing whiped soon.

I don't know what they did during my surgery & recovery, but I was on one of the most powerful antibiotics before surgery- it is SUPPOSE to be one of the new drugs that do work! Now I am anxious to find out exactly WHAT is going on! Thanks everyone, you are such great friends & support!! (((hugs))) Ellen

Bless your heart....I know this has been awful for u...hopefully this will be it..no surgery and get this infection GONE!
