So a week ago I had my IV antibiotics switch from vancomycin to daptomycin. According to the ID I was metabolizing the vancomycin too quickly.
I also have stopped the oxycodone. I was getting headaches and super unclear kind of like a brain fog when in them. They have switched me to Tramadol.
I have gotten word I can also have my second surgery hopefully the week of June 29th but will find out this coming week on when the final stage of the revision will be. More than likely I will be stopping IV meds on June 14th. Does anyone know how the PICC line is handled once one has stopped IV meds and before the next surgery? Do you flush daily still? I have word into the doctor on this question but figured someone here may have experience with this
