Before After

187.3-- going down and infection in my finger

Have I mentioned that I have a bad infection in my right index finger.  Going to see an infectious disease doc to finally figure it out-- my hand surgeon did all he could and the infection is stuck.  Fuck.
Looks like MRSA-- heard of that? We'll see-- but it looks like I'll be on a heavy duty antibiotic for 10 days (Clindamycin)-- can't wait to see the doc at 2pm and get those pills going-- I am not filling the rx from the hand doc until my visit with the ID doc.
 
If my stupid finger was not so pre-occupying, I'd be shouting to everywhere that I have lost around 5 pounds!  Liquid diets, y'all.
I just hope my surgery will not be postponed by this finger stupidity-- but it seems doubtful.
 
More soon-- just a few more days of pre-op liquid diet to go!! (Surgery is on MONDAY.) But then, more liquid diet for 10 more days... finally then onto purees....
Have I mentioned: anyone who thinks weight loss surgery is the easy way out is clearly out of his/ her mind? It is not an easy way-- but it seems to be a valid way to work things out when all else has failed.

Good Luck....

I hope the surgery is not posponed.
 
I have heard of MRSA my husband had it after surgery on his leg but a hefty dose of antibiotics soon sorted him out xx

Hi

Sorry to hear about your finger.  MRSA can be very dangerous and is contagious.  Our MRSA patients had to be in isolation so be careful around your family and friends!
