I have a staph infection in my finger that 3 rounds of antibiotics haven't fixed. At the Cleveland Clinic ER to be possibly admitted for IV antibiotics. I told the doctor I didn't care what they did but I was leaving for vacation 6/26 whether they liked it or not (in a joking way). He's going to consult with the lead doctor and let me know if they're going to admit me.

Good thoughts, please!
 

Sending positive thoughts that the IV antibiotics work. Take care of your health first staph infections can be serious. You can always cruise. A cruise isn't worth losing a finger or hand over.
 
They're admitting me for a couple of days. I've never been admitted to a hospital before. This sucks. Plus I live an hour away from the hospital but came here because all my scleroderma doctors are here at the Cleveland Clinic.

My neighbor has had to enlist a specialist in wound care fighting the same battle as you face;hope you have speedier result.:hourglass
 
Sending good thoughts and wishes that you recover completely and are able to cruise. :flower: Here's a little Pixie Dust. pixiedust:

Hour which way??:) I'm an hour west by Sandusky!!! I see a dr in Avon for my MCTD (mostly scleroderma) through university hospitals. Here's hoping a speedy recovery and antibiotics do the trick!!

I'm in a Stark County, so south of Cleveland. Thanks!

We're NW waiting for a sixth doctor to give his/her opinion. I'm pretty frustrated.
 
Pixie dust for a speedy recovery! pixiedust: Anything magical can happen in days before embarkation!!
 
update-They let me go home! After seeing 7, yes SEVEN doctors, three of which were hand surgeons, they sent me home with a two week antibiotic prescription. I also had one bag of IV antibiotics.

Thanks for all the good thoughts!!
