i would please like some advice , my dad was rushed into hopital with Acute pancreatitis, he was critical for a few days and in icu for a week, once stable he contracted the mrsa bug so in total he was in hospital for 5 weeks. he has lost two stone in weight and looks so ill. the illness was caused by stones and he will have to have a gall bladder op once he is well enough, is there a big chance that the pain will flair up again before he has the op?
we bought him home yesturday the day after he finished his two weeks of anti biotics for the mrsa, they did not swab him again to make sure that the bug has cleared and i'm really worried about taking the kids round to see him as i don't know if he still has it. we asked at the hospital if he would have another test and they said no because he was now not showing any signs of mrsa(symptons wise) please if anyone has had the mrsa or knows someone that has could you advise me on weither this is common practise not to be tested after treatment.
