for baking in the oven glass pan,,, the pan shattered!!!!! glass

every where ,,i was lucky it did not hit my eyes,,, andy way the

stuff went all over,,,, turned off oven,, let every thing cool down

and began to dispose of that nights dinner into the garbage,,, glass

inbedded in the roast,,,well here is the problem the juices with teh

herbs and spices got under the stove,,,, so i was able to get most

of that cleased up but i am short 5'2 and my husbands who is 6 ft

has longer arms asked him to clean up the rest as i could not reach

back behind the stove,,he assured me it was clean,,, ok ,,, well

after that i always ahd a funky smell in my kitchen,,,, hum,,,,, so

i removed the drawyer and it was never fully cleaned up ,,, ewwww

so i got on hands and knees got a lamp on the flood and spraied

with antobactorial spray, two kinds,,,, and as i was scrubbing and

wiping,,,i was not wearing gloves,,,i know ,i know ,,, blood all

over every where,, and ouch i had sliced my thumb open on that

bottom piece of metal near the floor near all that old crap,,,,blood

gushing,,,and of course i lose it,,,rinsed with water ,,forgot the

soap ,,, wraped it it in used dish towel ,,just trying to stop the

bleeding...run to bath room,,,, rinse again cold water and tried to

put on nepsporin,,,, more blood gushing,,,, o i remember ,,,

peroxide so on i poured it as i was doing the stinging dance ,,ouch

ouch good blood slowing down ,,,more pressure then noepsorin,,,and

in bandages,,,so now i call dr and they said i had to find out whn

last tetanaus shot was ,, so i call and they have to go to

archieves,,said it will take a few days,,ok so the dr was able to

squeeze me in fri ,, ok dr was called to er ,, so the PA saw me,,,

I carefully removed the wrapping and look good no red, normal flesh

color ,,,so to my horror and wioth no gloves or washing her hands

she said well it does not look infected and then started to squees

it and push it and reopen it, and got it bloeeding again!!!!!! then

she said she was giving me the shot right then,,,,now i was told

they needed the correct date of last shot due to either on the type

of shor or a group and she said if is was her she would take that

shot regardless,,, well i refused ,,i told her i wanted to wait as

weven the dr said it was suppose to be just looked ,,,wekk now two

days later it look red and infected a far cry from when i went

in ,,,,,i think swherealized that she forgot the gloves and was

trying to cover her but,,many way what should i do ,,,, i keep

getting different kinds of info , on the shot/ or the group and i do

not trust any shot,,, any info would be helpful,,,,, i did call the

service and talked to the dr on call , said if i get sick go to the

going to really try to cover their you know what because of what

this PA did,,, so in the mean time do i really have to get the

shot/shots... to aviod tetaneous,,,, rose

First thing, whether the wound looks good or bad you could be at risk for tetanus so while it sounds like its gotten infected, don't take that as any indication that you are in trouble or not... though, my understanding (and it may be different with animals) is that tetanus usually shows up within a few days. You may want to check on the incubation but I wouldn't get the shot. Odds are if you EVER had a tetanus shot and it provided immunity that you still have that protection. Second, while I am sure this isn't exactly going to sound like fun, tetanus isn't that serious of a disease. It is inconvenient for sure.. probably uncomfortable, embarrassing, compromising and I am not suggesting that you should WANT to get it... but if it were to pass that you did, its not life-threatening. At least not in any scenario I've heard of.

 

Do they not make a tetanus anti-toxoid for people? Again that is not the herbal approach but I know that the standard allopathic approach to tetanus exposure for animals is a shot of anti-toxoid rather than a vaccination if only because its too late for the vaccine at that point anyway. It takes time for a vaccine to work.. time that will be inadequate if the tetanus is in your system.

 

Sounds more like you should be focusing on what you need to do to clear up the infection to me. Finally there are no doubt greater minds on this list than I... so I wouldn't use my information as much of anything except to maybe get you to ask more questions and do more searching on the web for information.

Rose I am sooo sorry that all happened to you, it sounds like a

horrible experience. I would definately say something to someone

that the nurse wasn't wearing gloves.. You know in your mind who you

should talk to about that. I am scared of shots too and they should

have been able to retrieve your records by now.

 

Monday is tomorrow so you only have one day to go. Let us know what

happens.

First, next time you have gushing blood- cayenne pepper internally (you can

also put it on the wound but it will hurt bad).

Second, I would use some lavendar oil on the cut and then put some comfrey

salve on it. Keep it clean and dry. I would not do the tetanus shot

personally. Tetanus is a bacteria that can only survive in an anaerobic

environment.
