Guest guest Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Hello all, My husband is a 41 year old diabetic who has spent the last 12 months fighting Osteo Myelitis. He has had 7 surgeries total and the last 2 were performed at the Indiana University hospital which involved debredment of the pelvic bone and antibiotic beads. He was then sent home with a picc line and Vancomycin to treat it. He is doing well at this point, however, I am concerned with the fact that it may come back. The doctor's really don't give me straight answers when it comes to advising me of the likelyhood of this infection returning. I am wondering if anyone in the group has any first hand info on the chronic aspect of this infection. I would appreciate any info at this point. thanks so much for your help!
