I’ve mentioned previously in my ouch posts that somewhere along the line between stabbing myself and now I have picked up some sort of superbug/infection that could cause major problems to post operative patients and as such beginning this morning I have to put ointment up my nose three times a day, wash my entire body and hair with a special antibiotic soap (hair’s only every other day) and then powder my armpits and groin with an antibiotic powder, in addition to this I have to obviously wear fresh clothing (I do anyway although trousers may go a couple of days) but much to Mrs Bunny Chows joy and delight also a fresh towel and bedding daily.
This photo from Wikipedia should give you an idea of why I’m going through with the de-lousing.
If you really want to know more about MRSA (no it’s not just one bug) but a type of bugs then have a read through or just accept that whilst it doesn’t seem to have affected my life so far too badly aside from never-ending coughs colds and sniffles and more spots and the like than your average pubescent.
Wish me well and think of the poor long-suffering and very sweet Mrs Bunny Chow.

I’m sorry, I don’t actually ‘like’ what you’ve told us, but you know what I mean. Wow, sounds very unpleasant – I hope the bugs die a sudden and violent death, so you and the Mrs can get back to a normal life! 🙂
thanks Zelmare, I know where the intention lay, luckily the bugs thus far haven’t especially affected my life other than a couple of irritating spots and lots of sniffles, but then again I live with two small children so they could be equally to blame for them.
Ug, I agree with the person who commented before me, it is hard to “like” this post. Hope you are better soon.
thank you very much, this operation has been a long time coming and I cannot wait for the whole thing to be over and done with.
Hope you get better soon… Wish the operation is a success.
thanks
That looks terrible. Get better soon!!!
thanks Bassas, thankfully I don’t look like that and assuming that the delousing is effective then I won’t do anytime in the near future
Best of luck with your surgery and with getting rid of this bug. It’s a nasty one, as I understand.
Thank you very much, judging by the smell and texture of the delousing wash, there is little chance of anything surviving.
That sounds dreadful! Hope it clears up soon. Mrs BC has my sympathy…. oh,and you too of course. 😉

As one who has severed his thumb only six months ago, I wish that you get this resolved quickly and with the least amount of pain. Good luck.
Thank you spiderpaw
