Well imagine my reaction last night while I was at work and here comes DH and the House Supervisor to tell me he had to go home because he had MRSA and couldn't work until the facility MD evaluated the situation today and came up with a plan of action. My knees buckled and now I have several concerns, not just for him, but for myself. By now many of you knw that even after 10 years of marriage, I cannot keep away from him for long so now I'm concerned over my recent bout with pneumonia and am wondering if it was pneumonia in my lungs or could I have MRSA because we constantly kiss and if his hands were to have contaiminated his beard, isn't it possible that I could have gotten it from him??? Especially since I am still have symptoms and bring up very nasty, thick sputum. I have a follow up MD appointment tomorrow. Also, and this is really embarrassing but I'm concerned I could have MRSA in my urinary tract because my uring smells very foul, is cloudy and has a sharp pain at the end of each elimination. I'm thinking about requesting a urine and sputum culture. Do you think I'm over reacting or being paranoid???? Please give advice ASAP because my appointment is tomorrow and I need to know if I have a legitimate concern or if I'm just over reacting. HELP................also, to explain where his MRSA is......he has had blisters filled with purulent discharge forming on his hands for the past few months that appear, rupture, then dry up. We just thought he had a latex reaction but it could be a combo of that and that he was contaminated in one of the blisters by one of our MRSA patients. His washes his hands about a gazillion times a day but he is like me, a hugger and he has all the little old ladies at work in love with him, as he spoils them to pieces with hugs and affection and this is the way we figured he obtained it. Please, I need your input??????
