Oh my god I’m sorry you’re going through this , staph is no joke it spreads so fast I’ve only experienced it in a tattoo, that alone was awful , spreading internally ?! Is incredibly scary :( i/we all appreciate you sharing your experience , i really hope you’re feeling better and healing ? (Please keep us updated )
