  • Staphylococcus aureus is the bacteria responsible for what we commonly refer to as a staph infection. They are extremely common, but they are also developing antibiotic resistance at an alarming rate. Let's take a look at these now.

    Back in 2000, I had a big road traffic accident in Brunei, causing me to get injured the worst...the blow by the car was done on my head, which led me to a brain haemorrhage....I also got a surgery and have a shunt in me.....I was in coma for 3 months......Had the MRSA in me..........doctors all say it is a miracle that I've survived.....

    I'm highly allergic to penicillin and it's cousins. As for staph infections, well, the last two that I have had I managed to treat on my own without the use of antibiotics or a visit to a doctor. One somehow randomly appeared on my upper back/shoulder area. I just monitored it myself, kept it super clean, and continually applied a hot compress until my body had killed off the infection and pushed it out through an abscess. The other was years before when I was being a dipshit junkie loser. A vein blew out on the top of my forearm and I ended up with an infection just under the skin. I kept an eye on the redness/swelling and within a few days the spread had reversed. Again my body pushed it all into an abscess and out through the skin. That one left an exposed cavity about the diamerer of a nickel and just over a centimeter deep. I rinsed it with peroxide and saline solution and packed it with gauze before covering it with a fresh bandage each morning. I refuse to take antibiotics unless absolutely neccessary, as I don't like the thought of contributing to antibiotic resistance. They should be reserved for serious, life threatening situations only. I will absolutely go to a doctor if I need to, but if it can be handled on its own, I will save the appointment for someone else. Anyway yeah, this self-isolation is causing me write novels in the RUclips comments section, apparently.

      Right now I like to know how other people are dealing with certain diseases n med issues. My infection is ama. Big Pharma. Heh heh. I think it's nuts how some of these med personnel handle their cases. And I don't like feeling like a cash cow. It's like most have never heard of holistic healing and I even heard that I could forget trying my Chinese medicine in that office. Or saying x worked for me so let's try doing that. At least I got folks to slow down on the antibiotics. Totally not my usual way of doing healing but this case is ongoing and disparaging. And I think it's pathetic that I have to research this latest diagnosis myself so I understand and understand what is done about it. And I want to know can I flush this mersa crap out of me because I don't want more chems n toxins if there's a better plan. Have a great year!

    Unfortunately I am all too familiar with CA-MRSA. Currently dealing with a recurrent infection and this time every time I finish a round of antibiotics by the 3rd day without antibiotics the abcess comes back again in the same spot or same area. Within 24 hours it goes from a tiny bump to almost the size of a grape. I have had 1 I&D done with this recurrent infection. I am going back to the emergency room tomorrow for another I&D and I guess more antibiotics. My new family doctor made a mistake and gave me Keflex when I told her about the first bump 6 weeks ago. I took that for 10 days and the abcess grew larger and more painful the whole time. Then I went to the ER and had an I&D done and took 7 days of Clindamycin. Then 3 days later a second abcess appeared a half inch away from the first one. It grew faster and even made the recently drained abcess start to grow again as well. Went back to the ER and they did not I&D this time. They checked my labs via blood draw and gave me 10 days of Bactrim DS. Now 5 days after stopping that the second abcess is growing rapidly. Since last night it went from nothing to the size of a small marble today. I'm starting to get scared. Your expert advice or recommendations would be appreciated. Little backstory I had Recurrent CA-MRSA in 2010. I became Septic the first time and had my entire armpit cut out. Literally you could fit a tennis ball in the hole that was there. It recurred 3 times that month and I had 3 smaller chunks of my body removed. After my final discharge from the hospital I took Zyvox for 2 weeks and haven't had any other MRSA infection until this year. I am hoping I don't have to have surgery again and have a gaping hole in my groin. This outbreak is located on my inner right thigh about 2 inches from where my leg connects to my body.

    • @LemonThyme1933
      @LemonThyme1933 7 месяцев назад

      When I had it, the Drs in the hospital feared that some of the bacteria would hide in bone, and reappear later. It's not uncommon for people to have sepsis multiple times. I was in the hospital for 4 mths with sepsis from MRSA. It took over 90% of my body. It was deeply infiltrated throughout the muscles, and heavily embedded in the spine. It caused permanent spinal damage. I had to learn to walk again, but I have seen some people become permanently crippled by MRSA. It took two months to find an antibiotic that worked, then it was a very slow process. I have taken antibiotics less than 10X in 60yrs. I don't know at what point they consider a person to have had excessive antibiotics. Once every 6yrs does not seem excessive to me. It could be less than 10x. I did not take any penicillin after age 6 due to an allergic reaction.
