Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / March 2008MRSA Test
Well, got the results from my nasal swab MRSA test last week. It was negative, however my doctor said that just because no MRSA bacteria showed up in the nasal area, doesn't mean that it couldn't have colonized to another area. Oh, great! But, he told me to contact him immediately if the sore erupts again. So, guess for now, it's all I can do. He did have me on a Sulpha drug for a week before I saw him today, and it did help me more than the other antibiotics I'd been on. Thank you all for your concern and encouragement through the many months of "not knowing". I hope this is the end of it! Nanny Nanny, I too hope this is the end of it. Sometimes not knowing is worse than knowing! At least if you know , you have some idea of what to do about it--or at least a doctor does> Gwen > Well, got the results from my nasal swab MRSA test last week.

Nanny Nanny, here's praying that the infection is cleared completely and that you don't have any further problems with it! . . . . Donna . . . . 1.) ANGELS EXIST, but some times, since they don't all have wings, we call them FRIENDS...... 2.) J.K.M.A. For sure, Donna!
