[|Human|] Hi Doctors My father is 70+ yrs old, recently 4 weeks ago doctors Diagnosed that has Staphylococci on heart valve while inflammation was reached to 1200 , doctors giving him 2 vein injection daily(Vancomycin) and after 4 weeks inflammation reached 113, my questions are:1-What are the degrees that inflammation has to reach that allow us to stop the medicine?2-yesterday his body get rash every where, is it from the medicine (Vancomycin)?3-Does Staphylococci can be retrieved (come back again)?
[|AI|]  Thanks for posting your query to ChatDoctorI didn't understand your meaning of inflammation as there is no test to level the inflammation. Inflammation is a bodies protective response which manifest as fever, pain, redness etc .but as your father are suffering from Staphylococcus infection, and he is on Vancomycin treatment. So I suggest you to do repeat blood culture and sensitivity examination and if it is found negative with no clinical symptom considered it as recovery from infection. For rest of other problem consult to your creating physician .feel free to contact if any query.thanks.
