My thoughts and prayers. Get well soon.

Thanks for all the kind words Saw him today, and they have no clue what he has now, something bacterial is all we know, and the doctor hasn't been in to see him yet. So we have no clue when he's coming home and were starting to try and think of something to help us make ends meet. Dad says thanks so much and he can't wait to get out fishing again!

Katie, keeping you and your dad in my prayers.

Shingles absolutely suck, but they go away with rest.

And Lyme is treatable with drugs.

So hopefully he'll mend before the fall run gets into full swing!

The doc saw him at 9 last night and they figured out what he has. He has something called Callilitus.

We're off to go see him now, but I'll keep yall updated

T&P sent

katie: if you have any specific medicine related questions, send me a PM as I might be of some help. Cellulitis is a simple bacterial infection of the skin that can usually be treated with antibiotics. Lyme Disease and Herpes Zoster (ie shingles) can also cause skin pain, rash/lesions and some possible nerve damage such as in Bell's Palsy. It is hard at times to diagnose either of these, especially Lyme. Herpes-Zoster can sometimes be diagnosed by a viral culture of a skin lesion. As for lyme disease, usually all that can be determined is if one has been exposed to Lyme (ie have antibodies against lyme) but not necessarily if it active disease or the cause of the problem.

It is good that he is being seen by an ID specialist; as they should be able to sort these things out. I am a bit biased towards Boston , but I would not go pushing him to be transferred jsut yet.

Sorry but I missed this thread while I was in the rehab /nursing home ( no computer there)

Glad you are doing better Redcrabber. Lots of staff infections around now. They said I picked one up at the hospital after my hip replacement. Now thay say I didn't have it. Voodoo medicine! I got the treatment anyway as if I had it , no sense in taking chances. I'm sure that it will go away now you are being treated.

The lymes is something you want to stay on top of. Don't ignore it cause you feel better. track it down until you (and the specialist) are sure its gone.

Best of Luck. You have lots of friends here who are all pulling for you to get 100% and back on the water.

Lyme can be a real MF'er. The good thing is that USUALLY, it's easy to treat if you catch it early. Not always though, so DEFINITLEY follow up on it... TRUST ME.
