The culture from my thumb came back, it's MRSA.  KInd of scary!  So now I am on a stronger anti-biotic.  It should clear up before my surgery so it should not interfere with that.  GRrrrrrrrrrr.... not a good thing! The night the nail came off I was at the casino,  many germs there, no wonder!!

Hi Gabby


Well not good news but at least you are on the stronger antibotics now. Yep being at the casino when that happenned sure didn't help. Lot of germs all over those places.


Hoping it clears up quickly


Love ya

Hey Gabby!


It was a MRSA infection that almost killed me within 72 hours of noticing the infected bump on my but. I had almost all of my left but cheek amputated because of this

Aloha,

Lei

Oh wow! Do they have any idea where you might have picked it up? How long will you have to be treated?
