update to my infection

deebella918
So after a week in the hospital.. still here but some answers received there were two bacterias found in my wound.. one of which they believe the source was my IUD bc one bacteria was a bacteria associates with the vagina.. so they removed the IUD and changed my antibiotic. Still on the wound vac with the wound left open. Possibly will go home Tuesday but with the wound vac and many followups to attend...
