Hey everyone,
I am still in the hospital. I have a staph infection (Mercer). I had surgery again on Wed. to clean out the wound. Now I am on 2 antibiotics to try to get rid of the infection. I'll be going home with a PIC line so that I can receive IV antibiotics for two weeks and then I go to oral antibiotics for another 2 weeks. I just can't believe that this is happening to me. But all I can do is accept it and do what I have to do. I must increase my protein and take my vitamins faithfully. Thanks for all of your concern. I'm going to be okay. I used to weigh 621 pounds and now I don't. Some little infection won't keep me from my goals!!!!!

So glad you are taking care of it...sounds like you are on the mend! Don't get too down about getting an infection, my cousin got the same infection from her TT and ended up having 5 surgeries to keep cleaning it out, tons of antibiotics and a wound vac...and she came out just fine! Keep us all posted on your recovery.
You are one strong woman, you are right if you lost all that weight then this infection doesn't stand a chance! Hang in there, we are with you.
