Test results from the MRI on Steve's should are back. It shows that he possibly has injured it but it is also showing fluid. The doctor is a little concerned and is going to have a bone doctor stick a needle in it and test some of the fluid. If the fluid shows staph infection he is going to be here in the hospital for a while. If it comes back negative he may be out of here by the end of the week. They are talking about changing the antibiotic after talking to the infectious disease doc but will wait for another set of blood cultures to come back. His hemoglobin has not come back up yet, first blood draw was 7.2, then 7.3 and now is 7.1. He is feeling better but wears out very easily. Tricking infection, can hid and seem to be getting better but doesn't according to blood work so they have to stay on top of it.

Hopefully will find out more tomorrow.
