Your poor grandma. I got MRSA in a hospital too. It is often treated with an IV antibiotic. There's no problem having it at home too. Her blood will be monitored weekly and the standard length is for. minimum 6 weeks. They put a PICC line (a semi-permanent line to heart) in for it as well. Please wish her well for me and that others are wishing good health for. her.

Yeah, I wish that was true, and it might be for her, I certainly hope so, but in my case, I had a PICC line for several weeks before switching to oral Linezolid and it didn't touch my infection. All the Linezolid is doing now is keeping it at bay because the bacteria have formed a Biofilm on the metal implant in my knee and they are resistant strains. It is predicted that maybe as soon as within the next 20 years, antibiotics will be virtually useless from overuse. That's why I am an adamant proponent of Phage therapy, even though I myself have not been lucky enough as of yet to receive it, I have seen what it can do and I know it works. Continued prayers for her and God bless.
