[|Human|] I HAVE BEEN A CANCER PATIENT AND HAD A CVA. I have also had mersa three times post op. I now have a staph infection. The meds sugested are Bactrim, Clindamycin. I have had both before but the abdominal problems have been bad. May I have a suggestion? Thank you
[|AI|]  Dear user we know that cancer has some problems with immunity, but we should deal with that....I would like to tell you that cancer causes immunosuppression .so the immune system is weak to fight infection...MRSA is type of staph that is resistant to antibiotics.....although vancomycin is good for MRSA treatment....but we prefer antibiotic sensitivity test and that test detect what antibiotic used for treatment to give best results...you can discuss that with your doctor to use vancomycin or do antibiotic sensitivity test .....misuse of antibiotics cause clostridium difficile infection especially in cancer patient and this infection may cause diarrhea or abdominal pain you can discuss with your doctor about that probability.....you need not worry and follow these simple steps and improvement will occur....wish you healthy life ...thank you
