    Glad you are finally home! I think staph is required if you stay in the hospital now a days. I had a 2 night stint due to a concussion and got staph on the areas the EKG pads were attached, go figure.

    Sounds good rob! Just gotta get thru this week. I'm doin antibiotics twice a day thru my IV. That's the easy part. The tough part is I have an allergy to the only antibiotic that kills this infection. So I have to give myself 50mg of IV Benadryl before the antibiotics. If you e never had IV Benadryl it's pretty weird. On e my wife Injects the Benadryl I can't even stand up its so powerful. Makes me feel like I weigh 500lbs for about 2 hrs!!

    What a relief being home!! Started the IV antibiotics last night and had a minor scare! About 1/2 hr after the IV finished my hands and feet got pretty swollen! I started to break out in hives pretty bad, and my arms and torso became extremely itchy. Having the IV Benadryl here at home I did another dose of it to get ahead of the allergic reaction. Upon talking to the Doc this am the reason for the reaction was run ing the IV too fast. Imagine running it over 3 3/4 hrs instead of 4hrs made that much of a difference!

    Good to hear that you're home :) I'm sure that's nice to be back. Be careful with those medications and all the details.
