Infectious Diseases - December 2006

The wound is only a small dot. It did not punture to deeply in. I have not had a tetanus shot in over 20 yrs. Should I worry? Or should I go get the shot. I heard the antibodies you receive from the shot might not work for up to two weeks.

I have a MRSA staph infection and have become very ill but my vitals are normal. I'm on Septra. I can't sleep because of this constant creepy shivering sensation and I'm becoming very depressed. Can they prescribe something powerful that would allow me to get the rest I need?

I feel like I'm dying. I have the chills, vomiting, dirrahea, and a constant creeping sensation in my skin. My vitals are normal and so was bloodwork. So, why am I so sick? I can't sleep and haven't slept for five days. I don't know what can be done. I'm on Septra. Could it be the Septra? If I go off of it, how dangerous is that?

I have a sore that my Dr. tested and it's a MRSA staph infection. This past week, I have been very sick with chills and vomiting. I can not sleep because I have this awful skin crawling sensation. All my vitals are normal and I'm otherwise a healthy 33 year old. They did blood work and everything came back okay. I can not go on like this anymore. Should I go to the hospital? Is it the MRSA that's making me so ill? I'm on antibiotics.

I've just moved to a college campus residence this last August and this has been my first time away from home. Since Ive been here, Ive been sick many times. I've had the flu, pnemonia, the stomach flu, bronchitis and a URI all within 3 months. Ive never been this sick with so many things at once. Is this because I moved here or could it be something else? Or is there something else I could be doing to keep from getting sick? Im really tired of being sick. lol If anyone could help me out I would really appreciate it.

Not even thinking about the effects of the puppy licking me inside my mouth, I thought it to be something quite cute. But now I seem to have a sort of sore throat and it didn't even occur to me that it could have something to do with the puppy licking me there. Could this be from the puppy licking me inside my mouth? Or should I go to the doctor and see if it's possibly something else?

I drank the castor oil 2 weeks ago and still have the fever, about 38 degrees Celsius, in the morning it is less, although the puss I had in my urine is gone now.
Maybe you need to know that I have osteoporosis and phosphates.
I am 44 years old and have too much weight.
Thank you very much.
