    I know, very well, what a staph infection can/will do to you. I had one that (off & on) lasted over a year.

    Hope you get over it quickly.

    Get well soon, Al!
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    WTF Al? This is unsat.

    What's with all you Club Polkers trying your best to find creative ways to check out?

    Get better Al. At least they figured it out. A staph infection anywhere near something like your spine or neck can not only lead to paralysis but, if left unfettered, will shoot right to your brain and that'd be bad. Take it easy and get better.


    F1nut, maybe he did get the two bit hooker and that's how he got the staph infection?


    On a side note, BobMcG, you ARE still alive! WOOHOO!

    Holy cr@p! That's a different way to celebrate the New Year.

    Good luck with the recovery ... your screen name seems very appropriate at the moment, living so dangerously!

    104.8 temperature, acute pain, in the hospital for 3 days, and cocktails of antibiotics ..... I'd say you're lucky.








    ........ lucky that I wasn't expecting any DVD's from you or else I'd have to come down there and kick your arse !

    :eek:




    Hopefully that helped to get your circulation going. Here's hoping for a speedy recovery for you, and remember this rule of thumb: if it's in your hospital room and not bolted down, it's yours to take home when you are released.

    get better brotha.

    not for nothing, I have had those symptons you described, just a 101-102 fever and not 104. The whole body aches (particularly in the back) Luckily for me it broke one night and I was relativly ok the next day, but holy **** it was scary.

    given your plight I might not take it so lightly next time
