My niece who just had a baby @ 18 was sent home w/ low grade fever after c section is back in hospital with flesh eating bacteria. She was there for almost a week with no diagnosis! She went to surgery right after she was diagnosed and had to remove uterus, dead tissue above bladder, tissue on left hip and leg. She had been complaining for days of her left leg hurting and being red. It was also very hot and hard, they kept telling her it was from laying down!!!!!! She's having another small surgery today, hope everything turns out ok!
