I am a healthy 43 yr. old female with no immune deficiency, yet I was diagnosed with MRSA, hospitalized on I.V. Vancomycin for 4 days, and am home now. I still don"t feel well, and have a hole in my stomach. I had a place on my leg a month ago that was thought to be a spider bite, but I believe that was also MRSA. I am now on oral antibiotics, and am packing the area on my abdomen twice daily. I have no idea how I was exposed to this and am concerned about long term effects and what can I expect long term. What symptoms are normal? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.

It is a Staphylococcus infection and very resistant to treatment.
