Prayers for my Yodie, please; She has MRSA; *Update* 1/5; good/bad news; #269

Mary, I'm sorry to hear that the antibiotics are making her sick. Both of these have also made Storm sick and I had to stop giving them to him. Hopefully by giving her the Forti Flora that this will help her tummy. It's helped Storm but I have to give it to him in 2 smaller amounts or it upsets his tummy. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way. Please take care.

Medusa, how is Yodie today? Prayers and a candle

[Medusa]

She's doing pretty well; thanx for asking. She's kept the last three doses of meds down, so that's something. It'll be a month before another culture is taken to determine whether or not the MRSA has cleared up.

Today it's Boo Bear who's been feeling punk all day. He's been especially needy, always wanting to be on my lap and he's here right now as I type. He projectile vomited about an hour ago and I have no idea what brought it on. Always something, eh?

Mary, I'm glad that Yodie is able to keep her meds down. I'm sorry to hear about Boo. You sound like me and my cats. There always seems to one of them that has something going on with them. I hope that they'll all fianlly get healthy and stay that way.

She's going in for a procedure on Thursday. Dr. Lee is going to sedate her and flush her ear and clean it out really well, also check her throat because when she had the ear polyp, it grew downwards into her throat. A friend saw her yesterday and said "Yodie's gotten thinner", which surprised me because I didn't notice it. We'll see what the scales say.

Right before the holidays. Lovely. C'mon Law of Abundance! Well, the important thing is that Yodie heals and gets over this. She isn't sick or lethargic but she walks w/her head tilted again and she's constantly rubbing it up against furniture. A couple of days ago, she shook her head and a blob of greenish yellow mucous came out, so I'm thinking that the meds just aren't working.

Spare a prayer for my Yodie girl, please.

[Pinot's Mom]

Oh, poor baby, prayers this works everything out of her that needs to get out! Give her a kiss for me, please?

If the meds are not working you might want to talk with him about getting a product called vancomycin (http://www.mrsapedia.com/vancomycin-and-mrsa/). This is a drug of last resort to treat MRSA, but it is very effective.

Good luck with Yodie's procedure
