I forgot to mention. We spoke with Jim's doctor today and he said that he doesn't feel Jim should get the H1N1 vaccine. I asked why and he said many vaccines are tricky and he doesn't want to expose Jim to anything that may exacerbate his ms or make him sick. I think secretly he's not ready to say Ok since it's a rushed vaccine and so new. haha Anyway, he said if Jim feels strongly and wants it he wont stop him but in his medical opinion Jim getting the regular flu shot and having the pneumonia shot is enough for him. Hope that made sense.

His cultures came out with Klebsiella. Since he has no symptoms he said he will not treat Jim because he's more than likely colonized. If he starts to have any symptoms I am to call asap so he can call in some meds.
