» rob667 - Sinus MRSA

I also have a MRSA Sinus infection, 4 sinus surgery and 3 P.I.C.C. lines. I have tried all the standard antibiotics. No luck even 3 courses of IV antibiotics no luck. There is a cure "ZYVOX"
the generic is Linezolid. You will never get an rx for it. Unless you have serious connections. Those of us who can live with the infection, wont get medication. Only old dying people with blood infections get this med. No offense aimed at seniors but i am offended that we have to be dying to get treated. Meanwhile i am spreading the disease when i go to the Doctor, shake hands or people touch anything that i touch. I have infected no less than 3 people all in my family. There is no way to manage this bug, it manages you, it tells you how to live and i am sure it will tell me when to die. I am trying to get attention to the cause and get this new synthetic antibiotic available for more of us.
