I wish I knew where it ends.

Elliot, my 2 year old son got sick on Thursday, started vomiting and having diarrhea. On monday he still has the stomach flu and a MRSA boil popped up on his thigh. I don't get it.
 I don't understand how he keeps getting this when we treat it and we try to prevent it.
I am even more worried how his stomach will handle the medicine when he already has the stomach flu.

October is MRSA Awareness month.

I had no idea that OCT is MRSA awareness month, and the 2nd of OCT is World MRSA Day. The ribbon for MRSA is teal.
I want one, I know so many survivors of MRSA and even people dealing with it right this moment. I wish I could create a kind of organization that takes donations/buys bandages, bandaids, medicines/antibiotics and cremes- basically all the necessities that you need to treat MRSA and raise prevention awareness, but I have no idea how to do that.
I suppose I'll figure it out, its a great idea if you ask me.

The hole in my side.

The urgent care doctor told me over the weekend that my packing would "fall out" on its on by Sunday and it didn't so I got curious and pulled it out thinking it was a little piece which it was not. It was probably over an inch long.
When I pulled it out I was quite shocked to discover I had a gaping hole in my side, deeper and bigger than I assumed it was.
You're gonna love this picture.

Upon looking at this picture closely you can see into my side, looks decently deep and can also see the fat deep in there. This is why MRSA is not something to mess with or take lightly. I'm currently having a hard time grasping the fact that I have a hard, gaping hole in my side and it looks like an eye socket.

Well hopefully this thing will heal quickly and I won't ever get another one like this again, but I'm not holding my breath. This was definitely a wake up call for me.

Hard as a rock/ Clindamycin.

This is it today.

If you have ever had MRSA you know that once the infection gets going and blood cells start to fight back that the wound will harden and burrow deep into tissue/fat/whatever. Well mine is as hard as a rock. I never know that a body part can get that hard until I came in contact with MRSA. If you have an infection and its very hard and not responding to antibiotics its a tell-tell sign of MRSA. Also keep in mind if you have ever came in contact with MRSA and developed another bite like bump 90% percent of the time it will be MRSA- This according to my PA that treated me.
So my advice to you all is if a bump develops don't wait to see if it's a bite! GO to the doctor and get antibiotics or treat it somehow or you'll be regretting it later.



As for the clindamycin, it causes diarrhea and I've had some tiredness and achyness but I am not sure what is causing that. I also have a broken toe and a feel a cold coming on so who knows what is what! I'm taking it 3x and so far only the diarrhea seems to be a major nuisance.

Ouch, My God!

So hello MRSA fellows,
I went back to the urgent care today thinking I was going to get another shot and go home and wait for this crap to pop.
Well, that did not happen. I went into the office and the PA came into my room and was so sweet and caring (again). She was concerned about it not having a head and asked me if I would like to have it lanced.
I told her yes immediately and her demeanor changed. She seemed happy and told me that she loves doing this sort of thing. Which I suppose was great for me!
So she prepped me and numbed my side with I believe 3 shots of lidocaine which hurt sooooo bad. I think she did a good job though because she pulled out a sterile scalpel and went to work. I felt NONE of it except her pushing the puss out with her hands. She is amazing. I love her for the help she has done for me.
After she pushed the puss out, she packed my wound with gauze and told me to come back tomorrow.

Came home, hurting and took some codeine which helped a little. I am glad that this was done to me and not my son. FUCK YOU MRSA.

Anyway, just a few minutes ago my son jumped on my side which made it bleed through so I decided to change the bandages.
This is what it looks like under there.
Honestly, have no idea if that red stuff is the meat under or more of the gauze. It looks like meat to me in the mirror but in picture it looks like gauze. So who knows.

Guess who has MRSA?

I do!
A couple days ago this thing popped up on my side after taking a nap on my bed. (I change my sheets everyday and was wearing clean clothes. WTF??

It's quite swollen so I circled it to see how much it will grow by the morning.

Its horribly painful and has not developed a head and I want it to because it fucking hurts and needs to pop already.

My sister's boyfriend had MRSA on his groin this week and he had to have it packed with cotton three times. I do not want that.

Anyway, I went to urgent care today and they perscribed clindomycin and bactroban, the usual stuff.  I was glad to get the Clindomycin. Also got a shot in my butt of Rocephin (sp?) and I have to go back tomorrow for another.

My blood pressure was super high as well so she wanted to get another reading and maybe prescribe medicine.

 I wish the doctor would just cut this shit open. Hate MRSA. 

MRSA is back, I was hoping it was gone for good.

Well my little one just had his 2nd birthday on October 3rd and we were very happy that he hasn't had any MRSA boils in a few months and I foolishly thought he was finally over this MRSA bullshit but I was wrong.
This morning while cuddling with him I noticed he has one on his thigh. I feel like this fight will never be over, in fact it probably won't ever end. He sees his new doctor on Tuesday. Maybe he can give us some insight on this or send us to a specialist or something, I just don't know. Anyway here's the new boil:

For anyone going through this, I am sorry. I hope you get better and never have to go through this again. I am so sick of it and I wish to God I knew how to get rid of it because the Lord knows I have tried everything. I am just going to give him antibiotics and wait until Tuesday to see his pediatrician. I have no special home remedies anymore. I am almost just hopeless and tired now.

Took my son to his new doctor.

He was nicer than I had expected him to be. Although he was nice and thorough he didn't give us any definite new help.
He told us about bleach baths, which we know.
He told us about hibiclens and mupirocin, which we know.
He told me something new though, that typical cases of CA (Community acquired) MRSA is typical seen in 6 months and then disappears, he said our case is "rare and unlucky" man does that suck?
He prescribed clindimycin to my son and sent us on our way.

It's been awhile.

It's been awhile since MRSA has made me really cry, I just changed my sons diaper to find a boil forming on his thigh. This isn't fair. I don't get it. I am doing everything I should. I have been to the doctors with no help, changed Elliot's doctor so tomorrow we're probably going to go see him. We'll see.
My poor baby. This is so fucked up.

MRSA is back, surprise surprise.

Well recently I have been very stressed, as well as my husband.
about 7/24 we found a MRSA boil on his elbow, went straight to doctors but the doctor didn't want to do anything for it.
Well its been a few weeks and another popped up on his leg and arm. Thats 3 in 3 weeks. We're back to square 1 again.
We took him to urgent care and they swabbed it but did not provide medicine.
They said they would call him in a few days with the results.
Today I was feeling under my arm and it seems I have some abscesses INSIDE my underarm. All hard.
Then I saw a boil. So I have one under my arm.
Life is going so shitty for us lately.
My grandmother passed away, my car has been out of commission for 2 months and I've been using a car with no A/C in 109+ Weather almost everyday. My poor son is cranky, teething, has allergies and is just always upset because the heat. I'm tired of it. I don't know when we'll get a break or if we will ever get a break but I  honestly feel like this is never ending.

Today I was sitting outside and my mom came up to me and started tearing out grey hair out of my head. She told me it was probably because of my stress with Elliot and with everything else.
Which is true. I've been very stressed with my son, my health (just got tested for diabetes and came out OK but I am pre-diabetic, also have high cholestrol & blood pressure)
Anyway, its just never ending.

MRSA medicine.

My husband finally got some medicine for his boils! So here's hoping that this will slow down or even eliminate the boils for good! I can dream right? He started his first dose and I'm excited about it.
So both husband and son are on septra and both are putting honey on their boils and hopefully this helps.

My son's boil actually popped today but it looks like has a bit of pus still. Hope it goes away. He even has another right under that one but its much less red and looks superficial. Just have to wait for the medicine to kick in.

The new boil.

So I finally decided to take the leap today. I changed my son Elliot's doctor! I am happy but yet I am nervous. What if this doctor doesn't understand MRSA just like his current doctor? What if she's rude and wont help us either? But I took a chance. His new doctor is a female and hopefully she will help us with this MRSA stuff once and for all! I am not going to hold my breath but I can dream.

We also finally got my husband a doctor. He doesn't know this yet but tomorrow I have a mind to take him to urgent care to get him some antibiotics because he really needs some. So I am letting him know when we wake up. I am tired of feeling like he's the on giving our son the MRSA boils. My husband is a walking MRSA boil and I don't know if it's because of his horrible skin or what. Ever since he started working he will get 10 or so bumps every two weeks. Thats 20 a month. Maybe even more. I am concerned for him as well because he doesn't have anyone monitoring it. So I am hoping he can finally see a doctor about it.

Anyway, as for my son..like my previous post said he got a boil on his leg, it looks like it's just forming and has been here since the morning. It's started getting pus tonight and hopefully it will open and drain tomorrow when I soak him in the bath. This is what it looks like.

Oh Boy.

Well MRSA is back on my little man. In a peculiar place too. He has it on his right thigh in the front.
We are using honey and Septra as well as prid to hopefully draw it to a head to drain.
This sucks.

Routine Routine.

So today I went to walmart and bought some more things for my son because on top of being sick the MRSA is back as you know. I purchased PRID as I have heard on MRSA forums that prid draws the boil to a head and helps it open so it can drain which is essentially what you want when you have a MRSA boil.

I noticed a few things today and beforehand about my son and his particular MRSA.
I feel 100% sure that his MRSA outbreaks are coming from his father, so his father is the root of the outbreaks and I've come to the conclusion that my husband needs a huge intervention from a doctor as soon as possible. I encourage my husband to bathe in bleach every other day and he does which has proven to slow down the appearence of more boils but for some reason (which I believe has to do with his open wounds from eczema) whenever he touches my sons bare skin my son seems to get a boil. So I have tried to minimize bare skin touching between son and my husband just enough so he doesn't feel alienated from his child. This week or next week we plan to finally see a doctor about husbands MRSA. It has been hectic because we moved and are still unpacking and now Elliot being sick is not helping at all.

Anyhoo here's how it goes for us.

This thing pops up, just looks like a ordinary bite but then starts getting a white head and bam! we have a hard disgusting MRSA boil. Also like to note that for some odd reason my child gets MRSA under the arms and on his buttocks and legs, but like I said I believe he gets them under his arms because thats where my husband picks him up. Same with his buttocks when husband changes diapers and husband also carries him with his hand around his legs.

This is my medicine drawer just for my son, MRSA and fever meds.

This is the manuka honey we are currently using.

I usually put it on a bandaid with a Q-Tip and put it over his bump, several times a day.

Now we will be trying the prid, bleach baths, warm compress and manuka honey as well as septra.

I honestly believe this came on the wings of his sickness that he is battling. Update later.

And when do I give up?

My son is sick. On July 1st he developed a fever and was just lethargic. Next day we took him to the doctors and he tells me he has an ear infection which I honestly don't believe. Now a day later there is a MRSA bump on his side. I don't know what to do or think or say anymore I just want to give up already. I am not sure what else I can do about it that I haven't already done. I really need some help.

Uninformed doctors.

One of my main worries about my family having MRSA has been uninformed doctors dealing with their outbreaks of MRSA boils. My husband has never seen a doctor for his MRSA because of lack of insurance and has been battling MRSA outbreaks since 2010. Well we finally gave in because he has a sty in his eye and some boils on parts of his body that get sweaty while he's at work.

We took him to an urgent care and the Physicians assistant prescribed him Keflex for the MRSA. If you have had MRSA before and you have access to the internet you will know Keflex does not treat MRSA. MRSA is resistant to Keflex. So now we have to wait until he is assigned a doctor with our insurance and he can be seen for it by a primary care physician. I am shocked that a PA working in an urgent care would prescribe medicine for MRSA in which it is resistant to.

Very disappointed, but hopefully he can be seen soon by a PCP.

Here's an article about what MRSA is resistant to.

http://www.cdph.ca.gov/healthinfo/discond/Pages/MRSA.aspx

Hope against hope.

My sons MRSA has cleared up from his buttocks. Hopefully the bleach baths and septra are doing the work as well as the manuka honey. I noticed the boil had opened and immediately put manuka honey on it. I honestly believe it has helped.

For anyone interested I purchased the manuka honey at GNC for 30 dollars and some cents. They also have a different brand for about 16 dollars but I bought the darker higher count honey thinking it would work better but found from other researched 15+ and under works just as well. 

Anyway, I have also noticed that my son and his father's boils look differently.

My son gets theres hard boils that do not leak and they become big hard areas once the healing process begins. They form white heads and lots of swelling. 

My husbands seem only on the top layer of skin, they do not form a hardness under the skin. They look like impetigo but do not burst as easily as impetigo pustules. They crust over once they start healing and come in 5 at a time whereas my son will get 1 or two and no more than that at time (thank God). 

My mom informed me today that she has a client where she works whose body has been overtaken by MRSA which scares the holy shit out of me. He's old and has sepsis but its still MRSA and the thought scares the heck out of me. Also was told by an MA at my sons doctors office that her little girl who is a newborn has MRSA conjunctivitis, Holy crap is that scary! I feel so bad for her and it must be the hardest thing to see your baby going through that. I thank GOD that Elliot's MRSA has stuck solely to skin and if God willing he will keep getting MRSA I hope it will always stay on skin and not inside his body, only outside.

I have hope that on day my son will be MRSA free, I know it. But when? It has to happen. His immune system has grow and get enough to find off these infections. It has to happen.

Some "tips" that I have found and used.

So along this MRSA ride I have found some interesting tips that I have picked up and used against MRSA.

- We use bleach baths, sit in there for 5 minutes max fill the tub up with a half of a cup of bleach. It is supposed to prevent more boils and help heal current boils. Also good for eczema.
- Hibiclens, (although we currently do not use this because it literally burnt my sons buttocks and genitals when he had a MRSA boil on his bottom.) But supposedly it works when you have an open MRSA infected wound.
- Borax in the laundry, each load with boiling hot water if your hot water heater will manage there or you can boil some water on the stove and pour it in with your clothes to get a good temperature that will murder that sucker we call MRSA.
-Lysol, everywhere.
- UV ray light wand. It kills MRSA within 2 seconds of waving the wand over the affected area.
- Wash sheets every day to every two days.
- Vacuum everyday
- Clean carpet at least once a month.
- Wash hands thoroughly, use paper towels to dry hands.
- Bleach everything if you can, all surfaces.
-No dogs. As much as it pains me to not have any pets, MRSA can be carried by your animals.
-Cut out white bread and most things with sugar except for a cookie here and there, my sons a kid he has to have sweets sometimes but since MRSA lives off off white bread and sugar we have cut back on these things.


Right now I am trying to build up my sons immune system, trying to get him to eat better but its really hard.
He's been quite fussy, he screams, kicks, hits and scratches for no reason. He also cries all day now and I am not sure why. Hopefully this is some silly phase that he will get over, its very hard dealing with a child like this.


Also, the bump on his butt from the post below is infact MRSA, its grown a pus head and has hardened..so we're going to the urgent care tomorrow possibly because he has no more septra.
So far I have put manuka honey on it and have been watching it to see if it will pop or something.
Hope it goes away really fast.

Just being honest.

I am truly tired of battling MRSA.
My son Elliot had a MRSA boil on his bottom less than a week ago, we gave him septra and it went away with bath soaks and putting manuka honey on the boil. It didn't drain but its gone.
Not even a week later this is what I find on his left buttocks while bathing him.

It's kind of hard to see because he wouldn't stop moving and it's dark but it almost resembles a bite and I am hoping it really is a bite because he was outside playing in the dirt for a bit today so lets hope to God its a bug bite, ant bite or something instead of another MRSA bump which will be hell to deal with because Elliot has gotten progressively harder to deal with when he has MRSA bumps. He hates for us to touch them which is understandable but it's hard to put medicine or bandaids on him. He absolutely refuses to take the septra that his pediatrician prescribes to him over and over and over. There hasn't been a month this year that my son hasn't been on Septra. I hate it, he hates it. Now he spits it out or screams until he chokes on the medicine. He's actually gotten quite good at not swallowing it so I literally have to put two teaspoons or more in his mouth when the dosage is 1 and a half teaspoons. I am considering asking his pediatrician for a different antibiotic, I am considering changing pediatricians but I have yet to find a pediatrician that will see my son the same day that I call to ask to be seen.

I can't even explain how frustrating MRSA is, if you have had it, especially your innocent child who should have NEVER came in contact with the stupid strain or staph that literally ruins lives and destroys every day living than you understand where I am coming from.
Sometimes I feel so angry at people who have never even heard of it. I feel envy and wish that I could say MRSA What is that?

I don't think i have been this fed up or frustrated or tired since my pregnancy with Elliot. From the start it was hard. I got high blood pressure by 11 weeks, became high risk and had 2 ultrasounds every month which failed to notice that his cord was wrapped around his neck. From about 30 weeks on he did not move, he was always so still (now we know why because the damn cord!) and they did not find out until 38 weeks that he was basically choking to death for probably 2 months in there. I lived at the hospital, was there every single day because this child did not move.
Once he was born the problems grew.
He was so small and had no fat, he developed acid reflux, hospitalized for numerous things like salmonella, mrsa, impetigo, mrsa again. It's just been a one long descent into a horrible life of MRSA and financial problems for us.
I wish I could be more optimistic, but I can't. I hate MRSA and its ruining my life and my child's health and childhood He deserves to be happy and carefree. How can he be happy when he is always hurting?

Ouch, that hurts.

MRSA isn't the only struggle in our lives, in fact it's probably about 50 percent of the problem.
Finances aren't amazing or even good at this point, we were saving up for a car and bought one yesterday. I was dealing with a quite fussy toddler, my husband was supposed to check it out and make sure everything worked. I realize now everything was shady. Well turns out we did not find out til we got home that the car is junk. Its a long story but I have no way of contacting these people. They have changed their numbers and did not use real names. I got scammed. Its sad because I had informed the guy that I needed the car for my son to get to dr appointments as he has been very sick lately and he just lied in my face that the car was good. I can't believe how evil can be.

So far now, I have lost all hope and faith in everyone, people and sadly God. I feel like maybe it's time I start living my life the way I want to instead of the way the bible's God wan't me to live. I don't want to pray anymore, I don't want to even live anymore most of the time. How could a loving and JUST God let this happen to us when I prayed for a blessing in the form of a vehicle. So far getting my child to his dr appointments has been the hardest thing to do.

I just would like a break.

Elliot's bottom..

Well looks like the MRSA is getting worse on my sons bottom, its bigger and redder despite him being on septra. I have a feeling his pediatrician is going to cut it open and drain it because it looks so bad.
I am so worried. I am at a loss on what to do now.

Helpless against MRSA.

I honestly feel so helpless.
I thought it was gone for good. I always think its gone for good though and then it comes back.
My baby's bottom is fire read and his pediatrician was on vacation so now we have to use what urgent care gave us and HOPE that it doesn't get worse and we'll have to go to the ER. If we do go to the ER we're going to Loma Linda Children's hospital, I don't trust anywhere else anymore.

My husband has tons of MRSA bumps.
He has two on his abdomen, two on his thighs, one on his shin and two on his buttocks.
He is finally going to see a doctor tomorrow and hopefully get medicine. I feel he is the one giving it to our son.
He changed our sons diaper in the morning and in the evening he had a MRSA bump on his bottom after almost a month of being mrsa free.
I feel bad for my husband but I feel worse for my son. I am not even sure what to do except pray, spend money on cleaning supplies and clean. That's all the help I have and get and there's not much else I can think of doing.
I have scourged the internet for tips, ideas, experimental things..so far nothing has done much for us. Each new month there is a pustule, a boil, a spot and we're off to the doctors to get septra/bactrim once again.

It's barely June and we have had probably 8 MRSA spots on my son, as for my husband it has been countless.

All of this is happening with my husband working graveyard shift. He gets off at 6:30 AM and usually goes to sleep by 8 AM wakes up at 12 NOON which gives him pretty much NO sleep. My son is quite high maintenance, he needs attention 24/7 unless he's sleeping or watching Yo Gabba Gabba so his neediness does not allow his father or me much sleep or rest.
I have honestly forgotten what its like to sit down and enjoy a movie or dinner or have a conversation with my husband.
I don't remember the last time I truly enjoyed a shower or had a good laugh without my son crying.
I love him so much but sometimes he drives me up the wall.

Sometimes I feel suicidal, like maybe this will be the way out for me. But I don't do it BECAUSE of my son, what would he think if his mother abandoned him? I love him too much to do that to him.
What scares me is that maybe one day I'll stop caring and do it.

I pray that tomorrow the wound on my sons bottom will be gone and my husband will be able to see a doctor for his MRSA.
Also pray that we get the car tomorrow.

MRSA is back

Well its back again, my son has it on his buttocks and my husband has it on both sides of abdomen, his thigh, his calf, his knees and both sides of his buttocks.
I can't get rid of it because my husband has it bad and keeps giving it to our child. What the hell are we supposed to do?
I feel like I'm living in a warzone and MRSA is winning, I feel like they have contracted AIDS or something as silly as that sounds.
I want this all to end.

More money.

I just spent 32 dollars to shampoo my carpet. I believe it is where Elliot sat and got MRSA on his bottom.

The bump on my sons backside.

Well this is it. I put manuka honey on it and covered it. He's also going to  be on septra and taking bleach baths. I'm trying my hardest to get this right. To make it go away.

Anyway, woke up this morning to him crying as usual. He also has conjunctivitis and a bad cough and some congestion.

Yep, dealing with MRSA, conjunctivitis, allergies and/or cold cough with congestion.

I had to put saline in his nose and suck it out with a nasal aspirator at 6am so he could breath.
He's actually acting pretty happy for a kid who has a bad cough and mrsa on his butt.

Manuka Honey for MRSA.

A dark, bitter kind of honey can cripple infection-causing bacteria, including the highly virulent strain known as MRSA, and now researchers think they know how the honey fights the superbug.

Manuka honey is made when honeybees primarily consume the nectar of the manuka bush, a flowering plant native to Australia and New Zealand

Researchers already knew that manuka honey has antibacterial properties, but why and how it works has been a mystery.

"Manuka honey has an extra [unidentified] component that isn't found in other honey, which gives it an extra kick," said study team member Rowena Jenkins of the University of Wales Institute, Cardiff.

"It may even be several components working together."

Honey Thief

In a new experiment, Jenkins and colleagues grew MRSA in the lab with and without manuka honey for four hours.

MRSA, or meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, is a type of staph infection that isn't affected by many common antibiotics.

(Related: "Drug-Resistant Staph Infection Spreads to Gyms, Day Care.")

The team also grew batches of MRSA with and without sugar syrup, to check whether the honey's high sugar content was solely responsible for fighting the bacteria.

In general, many bacteria can't grow in high-sugar environments, since the sugars tie up water that the bacteria need to survive. (Get more germ-filled facts with our infectious diseases quiz.)

Jenkins and colleagues found that the MRSA bacteria treated with manuka honey more often lacked a particular protein necessary for synthesizing fatty acids, which are required for building cell walls and internal structures.

The crippled bacteria "don't have the necessary proteins to complete their life cycles," Jenkins said, so they are unable to reproduce and eventually die.

Since the sugar syrup didn't have the same results, the researchers think some other, unidentified component must be disabling the bacteria.

Not Exactly on Store Shelves

Finding out more about manuka's mystery ingredient could lead to new treatments for drug-resistant bacteria strains, the study authors say.

Still, the researchers caution against treating wounds with commercially sold manuka honey.

Unlike medical-grade honey, store-bought honey is not sterilized and could contain microbes and spores that might make an infection worse, Jenkins said.

What MRSA does.

-No play time because he's always sick.
-No outside time for fear of bug bites turning into MRSA
-MRSA takes about 300-500 dollars of our money every 90 days.
-I have spent maybe almost 5000 dollars on MRSA since son was born.
-Lost my car trying to move to another state to get away from the living conditions we were in. Didn't work, car broke down had to return to horrible living conditions.
-Stress on my relationship with my husband, I wrongfully blame him when I am stressing.
-Thoughts of suicide to get out of this horrible situation.

My fight against MRSA.

Hey everybody, I decided to make this blog to track our fight, to talk to anyone who is experiencing what I am experiencing and to provide others with information that I have compiled about MRSA. So here's my story.

I got pregnant in Jan 2010 with my son Elliot, he was born on 10/3/10 at 4:32 PM.

By 7 days old he was hospitalized and released the next day. I get a call telling me he had MRSA cultured in his nose. This would be the beginning of my long battle with MRSA, something I had only heard of from people who worked in care homes. My sister had had it and it went away with vancomycin. She was working with the elderly but her's never came back after treatment.
That phone call from the Dr's office scared the living crap out of me, I was crying forever and spoke to the dr. She reassured me everyone had it in their nose.

My son turned 2 months and a bump popped up on his groin, he's hospitalized for 4 days and given many antibiotics and the dr gave us cream to put in his nose.

It goes away for 6 good months. During this time my husband has has it off and on, gets it all over all the time and has no health insurance so he suffers through it. We're OK as long as my son doesn't get it.
Well in March, my sons about 9 months he gets a stye in his eye and it grows.
Turns bad quickly, then we take him to the doctor who then hospitalizes him and a culture finds that it is MRSA. He's in the hospital for four days then comes home after having antibiotics and steroids.

It goes away and he's OK for about two months.
Then this comes alongs...

He also had it on his leg, again we do septra and cover it up.

He also gets it a month later on his back and then again on his chest, then leg again, chest again.and now today he has one on his buttocks.

Not sure if I am missing any episodes but that is what I remember for now.
Now we're here, I have tried everything. I have bought UV ray light that kills MRSA.
I have used manuka honey, turmeric, probiotics, hibiclens, I bathe him everyday, I change the bedding everyday, he does not reuse clothing, he does play in dirt and he does not eat much sugar.
Now we are trying bleach baths.
