I have just done a lot of reading about MRSA because my DiL has this andis due to have a 10 day spell in hospital for more treatment.
She has been fighting Non Hodgkins for years and two years ago underwent bone marrow transplant from her sister.
needless to say, her recovery is very slow and unless she can get these infections sorted and doesn't get any more, e.g fungus on the lungs, pneumonia and this MRSA, which keeps returning.
As I have a reduced immune system - I'm on MTX and steroids, am I at risk. From what I have read I must admit I don't really understand it.
