BuffyBear的日记, 2012年01月13日

Oh Dear..that doesn't sound to good..be sure to keep an eye on it..infections like that can really turn bad in a moment..My sister had a small bite like thing on her leg and and wound up in the hospital for days and had to take antibotics for 2 weeks..Don't let it go at all..Take care honey...Sending prayers and love and hugs...:O) 

I'm awfully glad he's seeing an improvement this morning!  

Bren - I appreciate that - wish we knew what it was because I tend to think the worst - MERSA or Flesh Eating Bacteria. Maybe I watch too much TV.  

JN-Davis - You and me both! 

Hey Buffster! Keep an eye on your hubby's infection and don't hesitate getting him to the hospital if there isn't more improvement. The antibiotics they gave him ... hopefully are strong. I know he will be fine. I bet he got a spider bite. I just read your journal from yesterday and that was a lively conversation going on! Great read. I tend to stick to my dieting better when I have new recipes to try. Some of the new things I am buying now... due to not eating grains ... is coconut flour and almond flour. I started buying cans of turnip greens. Trying to get more green leafy veggies in. I am like Stef and Bren... there isn't a grocery store close to me and we shop Walmart for the prices. (SAMS CLUB, too). My favorite meats come from Sam's. I just divvy it all up into freezer baggies. Grocery shopping is a day out of the boonies for me, and it can be a nice outing. LOL! 

Buffy, I hope hubby improves that sounds really scary. I have to go to the grocery store later so hope to browse instead of rushing around, you have given me food for thought.  

I hope he continues to improve. I'm sending healing prayers and thoughts. I'm like you, I watch to many scary things on television and my mind always goes to the worst case scenario. Take care of hubby, and like M2B says . . . keep an eye on it. 

Buffy MERSA is what my sister got..it started out like an little spider bite and wound up being a big one..so keep a check on it for sure...TV and internet is a good source of info for us...later dear...:O) 

Glad you DH is feeling better, but like everyone already said, keep a close eye on it.  

It does sound really scary. You and your DH are in my thoughts and prayers. 

Buffy glad to hear DH fever and swelling is better, not something you want to mess around with infection & swelling for no apparent reason. Know you'll take good care of him. Best for the weekend ! 

Glad he is better! I am getting over my skin infection.... I was worried too, but luckily had some antibiotics to clear it up. They are no fun and can be quite painful! Good news heading into the weekend! :-)  

Buffy,Glad hubby is feeling better and you didn't have to spend the day at the hospital.No one likes those places..Have a great week-end. 

As everyone said watch it closely... not wishing to alarm you...have you read my bio? 

Thank you all for your concern. You'd better believe I'm keeping a close eye on him. The doctor had switched his meds to a double dose of a Sulfa Drug and that seems to do the trick, plus he seems to be tolerating it well (the list of side effects is long). Di Happy - He has already lost part of his pinkie finger (to snake bite) so we hope to keep the rest of his limbs intact.  

Buffy, that is so scary...I am glad he is improving. The side effects on those sulfa drugs are scary aren't they? What kind of snake bit him. I got a dry bite by a baby copperhead one year on a float trip...thank goodness he just barely got me and didn't inject any venom. Just left 2 little puncture wounds. Scary though, as we were miles from nowhere on a river in a canoe! lol Have a great weekend, and please know we will be praying for your hubby!  

Oh gosh, that sounds scary, but glad he's improving. Make sure to take care of you too! 

Awesome! Sending hugs anyway! take care! 

Just stopped by to see if your hubby is doing better today. ((HUGS)) 

Hope your hubby is doing better. :)
