been struggling with MRSA for about a year now, taken several different antibio. clendamycin, bactrim, Septra, Doxicycline, all of this after an ititial 9 day cleocin via IV. I finally decided to see a different doctor.....maybe he knows what he's doing...you could understand my skepticism at this point...but, he has me on Rifampin, 1200mg. a day and Bactim 1200mg aday....I don't think I have had this high of a dosage as of yet....it's really drained the life out of me....anyway, also concerned after reading about the Rifampin...that its mainly used for treating active TB.....anyway, at this point...nothing really makes sense at all......and of course, im not a doctor or nurse.....sooooo, if anyone has any input on this I would really appreciate it.......I know EVERY case of MRSA is different...but.....I would like to get some info.....anyone had or anyone know someone who has been successfully treated for MRSA, if so, fill me in please. thanks a bunch yall, sincerely.
