[QUOTE="Star*, post: 441241, member: 4964"] My thoughts? With M.R.S.A. Running rampant in the country now? I wouldn't just dismiss this as a staph infection. This could be a very serious life threatening situation for your daughter and she COULD end up being very serioulsy ill. Dude, DF, and even the man that taught my CDL class (he nearly lost his leg and life) had MRSA and it was BAD and they were all hospitalized. I'm not trying to run Henny Penny or freak you out, however - it IS contageous it IS something that needs to be tested, and it CAN make her very ill progressively. Bactrim will help - but if she is like most difficult child's she will take the medications until she feels a little better then stop. If that is the case? She'll get worse and build up a resistance and then need to be possibly hospitalized and put on an IV drip of Vancomyacin. Please urge her to go to the doctor and be tested for this. In the mean time? Don't let her touch open sores and touch anything of yours, and if she does? Keep disenfectant wipes and sanitizer close and protect yourself and anything she touches. The women that came to our home to take care of DF round the clock for three months ALL wore hazmat suits and threw away stethescopes and things like that daily. I'm guessing things have settled down since then. Dude got golfball sized pustules on his eyes, underarms and arms. The pictures were very gross, and he was in for three days. Again - tell her she needs to be tested to be sure this is not what she has. They can't tell by looking. She needs a special blood test. Maybe this will scare her enough to go back to you and get this done. [/QUOTE]
