Seriously...

Heading back to surgery Monday.  6 surgeries in 2 years.  I've needed them all and that's just the way it is.  My culture came back this week positive for a 3rd different growth.  I'm a quandry evidently.  I didn't read the report this time.  I just listened and planned with Drs. Lee and Marble.  Dr. Lee told me the daptomycin won't work for this one so I got a new oral drug last night.  Picc line still in but suspended for now.  I'll flush the line each night to keep it in good shape for Monday.  I'll see both doctors for a follow-up on Tuesday.  Monday will be a quick day surgery and they can use the picc line for a light IV sedation.  Dr. Marble will do a revision to the right side taking away some of the radiated skin and hoping to get a better connection to the good parts.  That's my positive, there are lots of good parts.
