      Are you getting I V antibiotics in the hospital ?  My friend, Ron's wife was getting I V s for a similiar problem at home. They taught him how to stop and start the new meds that went via the I V tube.  Don't worry, the anitbiotics will kill off the infection. Just pray about it. I'll pray for you too.
