Last week, I noticed something didn't smell right...
And I noticed a rash...
Without going into the nasty details, my c-section incision was in fact--Infected.
So my doctor prescribed Augmentin for me on Thursday so I could go ahead and start taking it that day since she couldn't see me until Friday.
Friday, she did a little mini-procedure in her office, I think to remove a suture that had come undone and was causing the problem.
They also did a wound culture, to test the bacteria.
Today the nurse called.
Whatever monster bacteria this was in my incision was not phased in the least bit by Augmentin.
So I had to take Thomas out in the Hurricane Ida remnants today (where Lakeshore Parkway by Jemison Park was COMPLETELY flooded. I've never seen that creek look like such a raging river), to go back to my doctor to get some uber antibiotic shot in my butt.
Hopefully that will do the trick.
Thank you, bacteria in my incision. It's been a lovely ride, now please go away.
