I couldn't tell due to the spelling but that definitely makes more sense...
Sorry to Jo, Lori and everyone for any confusion. I read so much about MRSA I
think my eyes are starting to cross! ;-)

Anything ending in "..cillin" is not good but, yes indeed, some MRSA is still
susceptible to Doxycycline. Lori, I'm so glad it worked for you, too, and
thanks for the correction.

Off topic: We took our dog to the vet today and realized we needed to decline a
drug for our puppy that was a sulfa antibiotic. Turns out there is a totally
safe and acceptable alternative animal pharmacuetical drug that is not an
antibiotic. We avoid antibiotics as much as possible (even for our pets since
staph is so easily passed around).

Sincerely,
Carrie
