Staph. Infections a Common Yet Serious Problem: Re: MRSA

» apollo79 - Re: MRSA

In response to message posted by Skylark34:

Hello I am a male same age as your daughter who was diagnosed with MSRA. Unfortunatley, I was mis-diagnosed twice and placed on two anti-biotics, one of which was keflex. Since I did not know I had staph, and the symptoms had vanished I stopped taking the meds. Two weeks later, they came back on my lower buttock-I went to a different doctor, when I was finally diagnosed I was immediatley placed on a strong anti-biotic called CLINDAMYCIN. This killed the bacteria-however long time use does have really bad side effects. I now have these scars I dont know what to about but I wanted to send you this message just in case you daugher develops a resistance to the keflex. I was instructed not to take keflex because of that reason. Thank you.
Apollo
