I went in the hospital once, they said, I tested positive and every time I've been in the hospital since then, it's like being in quarantine. They come in with the gowns and gloves and treat you like you have the Ebola virus. The last time they swapped my nose for testing to see if it was still necessary and they said he came back positive again. What ever it is, none of my family members or workers get anything from it. The only good part is, I'm guaranteed a private room. I'm allergic to vancomycin, so I don't know if it gets rid of it or not.

Hi Guys, My first question is I would like to know if they're lots of people in the Quad community who live with MRSA like me? The MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus) is a bacterial infection resistant to antibiotic methicillin. Is there some of you who add MRSA and finally got rid of it ? The problem with frigin bacteria is that it just won't go away, I had it for seven years, everytime I go to the hospital, it is the same routine all the time, the darn mask! Is there a way to really get rid of that for good ? Let me know, I would really appreciate. Thanks in advance, Yannik Ps: Info available at: _http://www.ccohs.ca/oshanswers/biol_hazards/methicillin.html_ (http://www.ccohs.ca/oshanswers/biol_hazards/methicillin.html)
