Has anyone dealt with infection on the rods. Bradley had veptr placement Jan. 16th and expansion May 11th. 3 weeks later we went in for emergency surgery its all over the rod. they put a drain in and kept it open. Our ortho here in Akron, Ohio is talking to Dr. Campbell to see whats best to do. There is no way we could have made it back to Philly. Symptoms came out of nowhere. Last nite bubble appeared and here we are:( Has anyone else dealt with this? We are just sick to our stomachs:( Please pray for him. Thank you Danette

So sorry. I know I worry about every little thing with the incision. Noah did have a bubble type blister, thankfully, it went away. I hope you find a solution soon.

Oh no. Emily developed an infection (staph and MRSA) last July - 10 days after her expansion surgery. She ended up in the hospital for 3 weeks with IV antibitiotics, drains and 2 wound vacs placed. Then came home with a picc line and IV antibitiotics until Nov. 30th. It was a long haul but doable and everything turned out fine - her rods didn't have to be removed. I will keep Bradley in my prayers!
