Thanks for the info, Terri. I will check out the article. My infection was discovered 28 months after the open heart surgery. So far the infection site appears to be contained in my chest wall. It is not in my blood; however, the cultures are still growing regarding my bones and muscles. So far, no damage has appeared in my heart or lungs. I'm alive, very upset about this whole scenario, fighting with everything I have to get my life back again.
