So alot of you know that I was in the hospital most of the week last week. Well Tuesday of this week, I woke up and the left side of my face was swolen up HUGE. It looked like I had a golfball in my cheek. This same kind of swelling started under my eye from my nose over to my cheek bone. It extended down to my chin.
So I called my Dr. and they told me to go to the ER. After all of their tests they decided that I had Cellulitis, wich is a tissue infection. I asked how I may have gotten it and the Doc says the incubation time is 6-7 days. Did I do anything unusual during that time? I told her that I was a patient in the hospital during that time. She actually laughed and told me that I should make sure my nurses washed their hands better. I was the 4th case she had seen with the same story that week.
