Hi everyone, so you may remember I posted a while ago about an infection I had, having been told it was, cellulitis, mastitis, a sermon and oedema well it started to clear after 3 drainages and I weeks of antibiotics including 3 days in hospital on an IV drip, I was allowed to go on holiday. So off I went one week into the holiday the infection became all red and hot again so I started the spare antibiotics they had given me just in case and the day I came back ended up in the hospital with the BCN’s. I also saw 2 Dr’s had blood tests and an ultrasound and have been put back in more antibiotics and am going back to see my surgeon on Tuesday
ive had this infection in my boob since August 27th and apart from one week have been on antibiotics, does anyone know how long you can have an infection like this for and how long is it safe to be on antibiotics. I am so fed up with this as I had no problems after my lumpectomy or radiotherapy now it’s just never ending
I hope everyone else is doing well
