    Anyone ever had a MRSA infection?

    Just curious how long it took for you to finally heal up & what kind of antibiotic they put you on (oral or IV etc) and the name of it.

    My friend got it on his eye lid. He was in the hospital for 4 days. They were giving him morphine. I forget what they gave him for the infection. He said, he doesn't really remember too much from the hosiptal stay. Since, the morphine was so damn strong. His eye is still healing from it. It's pretty much all better. But, his eye lid is still redish looking. I wish. I still had the photo of it on my phone. It looked like he had a ping pong ball under his eye lid.

    He got it in November. I think.

      MRSA infection is caused by Staphylococcus aureus bacteria — often called "staph." MRSA stands for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. It's a strain of staph that's resistant to the broad-spectrum antibiotics commonly used to treat it. MRSA can be fatal.

          Never had it but heard its a pretty bad. If you have it bad you will need an IV if you caught it early just some oral antibiotics will work.

                    I had one from a spider bite on my torso,

                    this was before the huge wave of staph that hit after the hurricane.

                    Had no idea what it was, swelled up and literally looked like a gun-shot wound about 4 days later.. sadly one of my relatives passed at the same time so I didn't want to complain.

                    The blackness was over the size of my fist, i to cut my pants/boxers just to lay down.

                    I have no idea how I let it get that bad, it was just 2 days or so.. then I couldn't speak properly and my tongue was swelling.

                    At that point I went into the bathroom, and put boiling hot water on it and lanced it.. at which point I blacked out from the pain and came 2 inches to knocking my head open on the bathtub.

                    It started to look a tiny bit better, but after I showed it to someone that immediately said "what the fuck, go to the hospital" so I did.. ended up getting bactrum ointment and bactrum antiobiotics.. and damn those are rough on your stomach

                    I WOULD ADVISE YOU TO ALWAYS HAVE SOME BACTRUM LOTION AND ANTIBIOTIC AROUND WHEN YOU CAN, BECAUSE THAT IS ALL A DOCTOR WILL DO FOR YOU.

                    Also it's not always about hygene, spider bites/insect bites can cause it as well.

                        My mother in law had it for almost a year. She had knee surgery and the knee became infected while in the hospital. They treated it but it would not die. So when she left the hospital, she had to go back every other day for treatments. Then they had to replace her knee twice after that. It has been a bad year for her. I know her medication was in an iv. I will ask her what they gave her.

                            Feel better soon Pr0. Normally they give you some kind of oral steroid to go along with the anti-biotic.

                                        So right. I got unbelievably sick from taking Cipro.

                                        I'm still worried about my tendons breaking.

                                          I was cultured for it a few weeks after a surgery I had a while back. Instead of waiting for the culture to come back (which was negative for MRSA) the doc went ahead and started me on the antibiotic Bactrim just in case it had been positive we'd have a jump on it.

                                            Treatments and drugs

                                            Both hospital- and community-associated strains of MRSA still respond to certain medications. In hospitals and care facilities, doctors often rely on the antibiotic vancomycin to treat resistant germs. CA-MRSA may be treated with vancomycin or other antibiotics that have proved effective against particular strains. Although vancomycin saves lives, it may become less effective as well. Some hospitals are already seeing strains of MRSA that are less easily killed by vancomycin.

                                            In some cases, antibiotics may not be necessary. For example, doctors may drain a superficial abscess caused by MRSA rather than treat the infection with drugs.

                                                PR0 - here's the story. (My wife has had it for several years although it's been dormant for a while - and I got infected once - don't even ask where )

                                                There are three things that you usually need to do after you have been comfirmed with MRSA.
                                                1. Vancomycin administered via IV - they usually want to give it to you two days in a row - I got my first bag when they lanced my infection, and had to back the next day for a second bag.
                                                2. Oral antibiotics that they'll prescribe, usually bactrim or doxycycline.
                                                3. After the active infection is gone, bactroban nasal - you apply it inside your nose (the most common place for MRSA colonization) for 10-14 days.

                                                The active infection should just go away by the time the antibiotics are finished --- unless it's one that needs to be lanced and drained first, and they'll probably do that before putting you on the antibiotics.

                                                    Most people get MRSA in hospitals (where my wife got hers) or in locker rooms, places like that.

                                                        It's neither - it's an infection that's developed over the years in response to antibiotics, so that can't be killed by most antibiotics - and it's so widespread at this point that you can get it anywhere. The most common outbreaks have been in pro locker rooms - and hospitals, which I wouldn't call dirty or grimy. It's just that if someone has it, they can spread it...and like I said in my earlier post, my wife got it when she went to the hospital after a car accident. There are estimates that at this point, half the people (doctors, nurses, aides, etc) who work in hospitals are carrying MRSA even if they don't have an active infection.

                                                          Ive always practiced not taking anti biotics but other are destroying this for us.

                                                          Is yer body more able to fight off these super infections if you wernt one of the people over using anti biotics?

                                                            Unfortunately, not as far as I understand --- think of it like a monster that adapted over time, growing scales so that spears couldn't kill it. The spears are the antibiotics --- it doesn't matter where the monster goes, nobody's spears can kill it.

                                                              I have a rare europian gene from the plague days created from people uneffected by the plagues. It renders me from such desueases as Aids and most other stds. There are a few things I can get. My actual blood has been used descovering new diseases that fit on the list of diseases im uninfected by.

                                                              How it works is The cells that the virus attack dont have the receptors that lets the virus into the cell. So basuicly its like playing catch and the ball just hits the person and falls to the ground. There is no way for the virus to penitrate the cell.
