Infectious? Maybe My Loud Laugh!

Met a new doctor today.  Dr. Kristin Lee - VERY nice.  She walked us through the thoughts on my circumstances of a very mild staph result shown in the device culture.  All my blood work had no growth, my ECHO and EKG are great, so the course is to remain conservative - not agressive -for now.  She added 9 days to my course of antibiotic.  Luckily it is just an adjustment to an oral medication and I don't need to receive medicine via IV.  I've had a few quirky months that's true.  I told her I thought the culture came back so mild because I am SO awesome about monitoring my health, REPORTING it well as a patient, and taking care of business outside of Oncology.  She laughed in agreement.  So we hope to see each other again, but only in the hallway!
