    Back from Hospital

    Well I got a infection and waited to long until practically my whole left hand was swollen. Its been 5 days and 21 Iv's later and im back. Just wanted everyone to know that shit happens and dont wait to long to go see a doc. If you think you got a infection then you most likely do. Doc told me that if I waited 2 more days I would have to have surgery. He told me people that wait to long have to get there limbs cut off so dont try to be a hero. I learned my lesson and hope you guys will learn from my mistake.

    ( I got all male nurses )

    I caught a MEAN staph infection last year. They had to remove my pacemaker (infection acts on a pacemaker just like it does an artificial joint). For around 8 weeks or so after I was released from the hospital,I had to wear a pump with a bag of Nafcillin attached to it. The whole thing ran through a PICC line into my right bicep.
    It was a total PITA to say the least.

    Did they determine where the infection originated from ( I'm assuming it was a cut on your hand?????) and what strain of bacteria it was?

    Did it get into the bursa's of the hand? That can get pretty nasty if that happens.

    Good to have you back BTW...

    Haha, hope u feel better Lexed..

    I just had to deal with shingles for 2 weeks.. which is basically a viral infection.. prolly from a chest injection..

    but i'll play dumb, n say it was the chicken pox coming back at me OooooOO

    who knows.. dont know how it happened..

    but 2 crappy weeks.. where i had to stop the cycle, and give my body a rest..
    bigger than ever now tho..

    skin still a lil reddish on my chest, neck, n part of face.. like a sunburn, but its a lot better than before.
