Do you or have you had MRSA?

I need someone to talk to about this. I am suffering ALL ALONE! No one understand the pain after surgery or how doctors treat you afterwards. I also have a lot of questions. I caught my after a 2 day stay in a cardiac ward in a hospital - and have been suffering since Nov. '08 and I can't get any answers. Pain meds really don't work and I think the doc who did my surgery botched it. He did it in his office and then I came to find out 3 1/2 weeks later when I asked for a copy of my records - that it was MRSA - but the doc didn't know until I told him!!! I need someone to talk to.....

I can tell that you are feeling hopeless and helpless. I certainly understand why. Especially having to investigate on your own to find out. I assure you that YOU are not alone. Many people have been subjected to this infection. I haven't, but there's many people on this site that have. Hold tight and give your blog time to be read by others. I'm positive that you will get many helpful comments. In the meanwhile. I will be glad to help and answer any questions that you may have. Many of the hospitalized people that I care for have MRSA. Probably 80%-90%. I'll check on the blog a little later. Leave a question if you'd like.

I am so sorry you are dealing with this and feel so alone, my sister whom lives with me so i can care for her had back surgery in 2006 and her back still isn't healed anyway while in the hospital she got MRSA and bacterial meningitis, we actually were told she wasnt going to make it. but almost 3 yrs later she is with us. her back is still not healed and she gets recurrent MRSA. and does have severe pain, her doctor has her on fentynal patches and dilodid pills, but she has RA and can't take meds for it because her back is still opened. anyway if you want to talk or ask me anything about MRSA or anything just right to me anytime I do my best to answer or at least be a friend

take care Psm Jones
