At present he is getting pills for Staff infection. He also has draining tubes in to drain infected necrosis and a nasal feed tube as he is not eating, protien low (13). Can you please explain what his chances of recovery are, and also explain about the bugs? Many thanks. Sheila

Hello,

* As per my surgical experience, there are many reasons of pancreatitis as postoperative stress, enzyme alterations, hormone issues or else relation with immune level issues.

* The staphylococcus is a gram-positive coccus with multiple modes of systemic actions affecting various body systems via different actions via toxins.

* Recovery takes time, but under expert care it recovers the best way to complete resolution.
