Meeting on Friday

[JDavid]

Lebanese,
I am glad you found a surgeon with better communication skills.However, while the issue of infection does have elements of randomness, much can be done to prevent infection and that is a topic you need to discuss with your doctor. My surgeon had me showering with Hibecleanse (an antibiotic soap) for a week prior to surgery. Five days prior to surgery he had me start taking oral antibiotics. When I got to the hospital, they gave me IV antibiotics. After surgery, he had me on IV antibiotics for twenty-four hours. Then I continued on oral antibiotics for several more days. None of this is out of reach in your country.
