Total knee replacement infection after 9 years.

I am researching taking antibiotics for the rest of my life, but I have found/gotten mixed responses from doctors/websites. I am making an appointment with Mayo clinic to discuss this further. Unfortunately, I have taken great amount of antibiotics for past illnesses thru the years and so it is of great concern.

My replacement knee got an infection, Klebsiella Pneumoniae in 2024. The Doctor put me on Sulfamethoxazole TMD-DS for the rest of my life! I’m also wondering how this will affect my body. So far it has worked! Wondering if I should go thru the surgery?

Ask your family doctor to run a quantitative immunoglobulin panel. You might have CVID.
