Hi Mary and soft hugs,

I'm so sorry about your complications. Staph is serious and difficult to get rid of. It CAN spread in your system, that's why the dr. wants twice a day repacking and cleaning. Do you think you could call his office and tell them how bad you feel and they are only cleaning it once a day. Ask for a prescription to the insurance company and a copy sent to you for your medical file. Insurance company wouldn't dare go against his orders his writing with a carbon copy to you. You don't want staph in your body or spreading!

You'll get well faster. It's the pits to have complications. I've never had staph but I've known others, including my Mom. Did he put you on antibiotics? Please take care and let us know how you are doing. We all care, Loretta P.S. I wrote last night, but it didn't go thru.
