Having problems with message search?
From my understanding and research that I have done myself, we are only contagious when we have an outbreak.
In my case, the only way that I could transmit MRSA to my partner or anyone for that matter is if they have an open wound and the MRSA laden fluid that is in my wound somehow got into their open wound.
As long as you are careful and take necessary precautions, I don't see why this should be a problem ... especially if you love this guy!
Hope that helps ... if not, maybe you should talk to your own health care professional for advice.

Subject: [MRSA] Need Help/Advice
I'm thinking about seing this one guy who has staph infection "in his
blood". He said that when he got it, it was not treated right away (as
an athlete) so now he has it "permanently". He explained to me that
for the rest of his life he will have an outbreak of it here and there
and then he is contagious, but other than that it's ok. If we end up
getting into a relationship, I wanted to know exactly what I was
getting myself into. My friends say that I can't really kiss him,
since I will get a case of staph right away. I tried to look online
for some information about this but all I can find is general info.
So my question is this: Will I really get a case of staph infection as
soon as we kiss? what about sex? Is he only contageous when he has an
outbreak? Please help! I have read everything that ended from
words "common infection" to words like "death". I love this guy but I
don't want to compromise my health if this is something dangerous.
Thank you in advance.
