Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus is the full name for MRSA (sometimes referred to as the 'superbug'). While it is rare to have MRSA spread to the lungs outside a hospital setting (most lung infections occur when people are on ventilators), it is still possible to get the infection in your lungs. Since you have COPD, and your lungs are not in the greatest of shape, it would be prudent to see your doctor as soon as possible to rule out pneumonia. People with lung disease have an increased risk of pneumonia, and any infection (even the common cold) can result in a devastating and potentially fatal secondary infection. MRSA is serious and must be taken seriously. You need to inform your doctor about your lung symptoms. Waiting until you are extremely ill can cost you your life. Don't procrastinate. Your lungs cannot handle normal respiratory infections, let alone one that is antibiotic resistant. Good luck, and contact your doctor as soon as possible.
I have copd, and have been diagnosed with MRSA, in form of skin infection, my lungs feel weaker, is that MRSA
go to the doctor
Reply:No, it's probably an exacerbation of the COPD. MRSA isn't really as serious as the media is making it out to be. They just treat it with different antibiotics.
Reply:MRSA is a staph infection. It can affect your entire body. Are you currently taking antibiotics? You should see a doctor if you feel that your condition is worsening rather than improving. Your feeling of weakness could be attributed in part to your body fighting off the infection. Because MRSA is very serious, and it can enter the bloodstream if not treated properly, you should go back to your doctor and have them take a look. Good luck.
