A member asked:
I had mrsa in knee joint which then weakened and fractured my femur mrsa in hip joint, both replaced now curious of any possible long term effects?

Infection: Did they find the source as to why you're getting the septic arthritis? You are at significantly higher risk of MRSA septic arthritis, especially with a prosthesis? Did they eradicate the infection before the total hips and knee? How did they confirm they were eradicated?
