almost killed me.

does anyone out there feel like me.

my mrsa, was in the nose,

but the treatment spsread in my blood.

i have no mrsa in the blood.

but i feel its stil there.

i treat rashs with (alcon, a storid cream)

i have night sweats.

and my cuts take weeks to heal and end up with a scare,

" I was diaginosed a year ago and feel like this will never leave my body. Even though I only have small break outs from time to time these drain my energy and Im scared of loosing my job from calling off....... I had mrsa in my leg and in my nose and since I have no health insurance I have no way of treaking this. "

" thanks for you reply, i feel i have brakes outs
and i feel its the mrsa

sometimes i think i know more then the doctors. im lucky, because before treatment, i lived with it, because of my genes and my amune system. but when i was treated and the doctor ignored my complates, i almost died

when i get cuts and colds of fevors, it scares me today
i get more ildness and im able to fight it, but i feel its the mrsa. cuts and rashes. scares me the most today. i have night sweats and if i get colds, my amune system works hard to block mrsa. colds take longer to remove and i watch for cuts and . i seem to be strong now. to fight , think is mrsa, i have alot of night sweats, that i wake up each morning, completly wet, and many times change clothes during the night. during my treatment. i had many night sweats and i think because im not under doctors treatment, because of the treatment the doctor gave me. i'm able to fight back. and i think i fought back many years.

my sweats i get at night, im sleeping, and its not being hot, i wake up so wet, , that i change clothes. sometimes im so weak , that i cant wake to change clothes. my sweats, are cold. im not hot at all, i wake up fresing. duirng my mrsa treatment i had these, but because of the treatment i kept doing i got worse, since i dont take the treatment now i am fine, but my body works hard to fight the mrsa. im scared about the future


do you have this to , you wake up all wet, like you came out of a shower "

" I had 4 bouts with MRSA about 2 years ago. I was in the hospital 3 times for a total of 4 weeks in an 8 week period. The doctor says I'm a carrier. To complicate things, I developed eczema after the MRSA. Now, I have to worry about scratching because it might open the skin and let the MRSA back in. Check with your doctor or see a dermatologist about the rash. It might be eczema. "
