Hi, I had staphylococcus bacterial infections in the sinuses. Since then I keep feeling a constant fatigue and sensitivity to pain. I think it is connected, because I heard that MRSA (staphylococcus infect.) could cause these symptoms, which are probably fibro or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.

Hi, I had a MRSA infection in my nose when I was in a hospital. There was a danger to spread further, so I had a special antibiotic called mupirocin applied onto my skin (Bactroban). MRSA is resistant to most of the drugs, so I had to treat it with vancomycin. I was getting it by slow infusion into a vein, because the injections in the muscles are too painful. About your symptoms and fibro, I guess you were talking about fibromyalgia. As I remember, this syndrome has many symptoms, such as fatigue, nausea, anxiety and sensitivity to pain. I know MRSA can cause fatigue, but I’m not shore if it causes this syndrome exactly. Staphylococcus infection produces "membrane damaging toxins" in the sinuses, and that is what makes you feel tired and dizzy.
