I Am Thankful Today: No More MRSA

On November 22, 2018 while preparing the Thanksgiving table I took a fall to the floor. I seems fine, just a bit sore. A few days later I went to the ER and learned I had cellulitis. The next day I went in an ambulance to Kootenai Health. I needed a specialist to provide wound care. I also learned I had MRSA. Since that week I have had been on strong antibiotics, struggled with secondary infections, and had to postpone knee replacement surgery. I was no longer contagious, but was a carrier and it was wrecking havoc on my body.
Since March I have worked to rid the MRSA from my body. I can't say what really worked, because I tried so many things. Last week I got the best news this year. The MRSA is now gone from my body.

I was so relieved. I am thankful, grateful, blessed, and happy. I am moving forward to even better health.
