Anyone else out there on a long-term antibiotics regimen? , I am sure you had a culture and sensitivity testing to see which antibiotics do and do not work and MSSA is in a category in itself. My question is that , What if you become intolerance to the antibiotic and it becomes ineffective ? The spacers are made from different material than the hardware, so would this make a difference or is it the same as I have BAK cages. I have known of students I treated with Cerebral Palsy that got Staph that stayed on long term IV antibiotics but I also would have the same questions you do. Remember the side effects of Cipro, the ruptured tendons and interacts with some meds to include thyroid meds. I was put on Cipro and I was taking thyroid meds so I called my Doctor after reading the inserts. All I can say is do research on your own, and get a second opinion, insurance usually pays for them. I am sure the ID doctors know what they are doing but I would want to know the same things you do. Good Luck and please let us know how you are doing.
