This past weekend presented again with fever, chills, malaise, and increased spasms and I took in a urine sample whicChatDoctore back positive for staph aureus. Doctor said it was not serious and probably a result of intermittent cath. introducing the bacteria from his skin. I insisted on antibiotics he said not necessary because the fevers had stopped.
